MENU 05 DISPLAY MODE
THERE ARE THREE MODES TO CHOOSE IN DISPLAY MODE: REAL TIME, SNAPSHOT
AND PEAK HOLD
Real Time
is the standard operation of the instrument. For basic inspection operations choose
Real Time. Snapshot is a very useful mode for inspections that require a comparison of
measurements.
Snapshot
holds a specific reading on the display. The display can be updated by releasing and
pressing the trigger. An example of this operation mode would be to locate the loudest point in
a machine. By pointing the instrument at a loud signal and pressing the trigger, the sound
intensity level will be displayed on the panel and held for comparison as the instrument is
scanned around other points on the machine. The meter will remain constant while the audio
levels change. Another example is performing a quick comparison of multiple bearings by
pressing and releasing the trigger to update and compare sound levels.
Peak Hold
displays and holds the peak value for comparison. It changes only when a higher
ultrasound level is sensed. The bar graph will move up and down to display sound intensities,
but the Peak Hold dB reading in the upper left corner will remain constant. A thin vertical line
on the bar graph indicates the peak intensity of the bar graph. The Peak Hold dB reading is
reset by turning the instrument off or by changing the frequency.
