TIP: Figure 33
on page 36 contains a flow chart for the
Scanner
mode; it shows the
functions associated with the
Scanner
routine and how to access them.
Figure 33
references
Figure 34
for the
Scanner
sequence and can be seen on the page 37.
There are two steps involved in the
Scanner
process. The first step is a
free air
measurement
; the second is the
sample measurement
which will last for 120 seconds
unless stopped with the use of
SBP
▼
.
To start the measurement process follow the steps listed below. Ensure your KT-10 v2 is
on the screen presented in
Figure 28
and is positioned in free space void of all metallic
objects first.
Step 1:
With the KT-10 v2 in free air, use
SBP
▲
to start the
Scanner
process.
Soon after you will hear a short sound indicating the free air
measurements are complete and that the meter can be positioned on the
sample.
Step 2:
Begin to move the KT-10 v2 along the surface you wish to measure. The
meter’s loud speaker will indicate the relative intensity of the reading by
the pitch of the audio. Place a marker in the data set with
SBP
▲
. Use
SBP
▼
at any time during the scanning process to end scanning.
Markers are special symbols that are added to the scanner data stream while scanned
values are being stored to the memory. These can be used for correlation of the recorded
samples which may help to synchronize measured values with important positions of
anomalies in your samples. Markers can be used as often or as sparingly as needed.
To repeat the
Scanner
process without saving the results, position the unit in free air and
go directly to
Step 1
.
