Dakota Ultrasonics MVX - Manual (Page 13)

MVX High Performance Thickness Gauge
2.3 Measure
The MVX is now ready to measure. There are four different measurement view
options, each with a specific purpose. The steps below outline how to toggle
between the different view mode options:
Selecting the Measurement View Option
1) Press the MENU key once to activate the menu items tab. Press the MENU
key multiple times to tab right and the ESC key multiple times to tab left until
the DISP menu is highlighted and displaying the submenu items.
2) Use the UP and DOWN arrow keys to scroll through the sub menu items
until VIEW is highlighted.
3) Use the LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys to scroll the view options.
4) Once the view is displayed, press the MEAS key to return to measurement
mode.
RF: Is useful to see exactly what the signal looks like directly around the detect
point. Use this view only when viewing smaller ranges (zoomed in) around the
detection point. This can be done manually by adjusting the delay and width
settings.
RECTIFIED (RECT): Displays the entire range being scanned. This screen is useful
to “get the big picture” when viewing wide ranges (zoomed out). The point which is
triggering the digital thickness reading (called the detect) is displayed as a vertical
dashed line.
BSCAN: The Time Based B-Scan provides the user with a cross sectional view of
the material being tested. This mode is useful when there is concern regarding the
profile of the blind surface. This can also be a useful view when scanning for pits and
flaws.
