Components
Metered Pistol Housing
The main component of the Ultraprobe is its' pistol housing. From back to front, let's examine each part.
Analog Meter (A)
This ballistic meter has intensity increments of from 0 to 100. The 50 divisions reflect intensity changes
only: the more intense the ultrasonic signal, the higher
the reading.
Battery Level (B)
This red light turns on only when the batteries need recharging.
NOTE: When the trigger on/off switch is pulled to the on position, the red battery light will flicker
on and off quickly and the meter will Jump rapidly to indicate that the instrument is working properly.
Sensitivity Dial (C)
The increments on this dial allow for 500 individual set-points. There are 2 sets of numbers. The outer
window reflects the whole digit and reads from 0 to 10. The inside digits are for fine tuning and these
smaller gradations are shown as lines which represent 2 divisions each. As the numbers go UP in value,
the
sensitivity of the instrument also goes up. The maximum sensitivity level is 10, the minimum sensitivity
level is 0.0. On the sensitivity selection switch is a LOCK lever. This allows a user to lock the sensitivity
selection and thereby prevent it from being moved inadvertently. To lock the sensitivity selection, rotate
the lever clockwise; to release the lock, rotate the lever counter-clockwise.
Headset Jack (D)
This is where you plug in the headset. Be sure to plug it in firmly until it clicks. Should a tape recorder be
utilized, this is where the cord for the tape recorder is inserted. (Use a Miniphone plug). This can also be
used as an output for an
oscilloscope, engine analyzer or FFT with the use of a UE-MPBNC-2 Miniphone-
BNC connector cable and UE DC2 FFT adapter.
