Material: The UMX-2 includes a list of common material types with standard set
velocities. It’s important to note that the velocities associated with these materials
are general velocity values only. Materials of the same type, can have varying
grades and consistencies. As a result, the material velocity will also have slight
variations. A custom velocity has been implemented for this reason, and can be
programmed via DakView3 PC software. Refer to page 28 for further info.

Mode: The UMX-2 is equipped with a number of advanced measurement modes, to
satisfy a variety of application scenarios. The following is a brief description of each
mode. Refer to page 22 for further info:
•
P-E (Pulse-Echo) – Common mode for measuring non-coated material (bare
metals).
•
PECT (Pulse-Echo Coating) – A special mode used on coated materials to
measure the thickness of both; the base material and coating.
•
E-E (Echo-Echo) – Common mode for measuring coated materials, and
measuring the base material only, without having to remove the coating.
