Important comments:
•
Depending on the transducer identified by the UMX-2, only the menu options
applicable to that specific transducer will appear. Therefore, it’s important to
note that the menus displayed are dynamic and may not be consistent if
different types of transducer are interchanged.
•
Again, depending on the transducer identified, the modes applicable for that
specific probe type will be enabled and displayed. Dual element transducers
have mode options of P-E, PECT, or E-E. While the single element
membrane transducer options will only use our special TCG (time corrected
gain) triple echo mode (E-E-E), and all three modes listed above will be
deactivated and not displayed.
•
If the MEMOFF has been activated, the data logging section of the gauge will
be temporarily turned off. This would be deactivated only if the user does not
intend to store measurements in the UMX-2. As a result, MEMOFF will
become the first ‘top level’ menu option, in place of a storage cell location (i.e.
A 1). Additionally, the top level menu items ‘DIRECT’ and ‘CLEAR’ will also
be temporarily deactivated from the menu options, as they pertain only to the
data storage facility of the UMX-2.
•
If a custom material type has not been uploaded into the UMX-2, it will not
appear in the MATL subdirectory.
In general, if features and menu options start appearing/disappearing, as options
are activated/deactivated, it’s entirely based on the configuration settings and
probe identified by the UMX-2. The objective is to eliminate those items from the
menu structure that do not pertain to the mode or features activated/deactivated
by the user. It’s our effort to keep the available menu structure ‘simple’ and
‘intuitive’. All the features of UMX-2 will be further explained in later section of this
manual.
