5) The UMX-2 is now calibrated and ready to begin taking readings.
Preset Material Types & Velocities
If the material velocity is known, the user may wish to simply enter the velocity
number into the UMX-2, rather than have the UMX-2 calcula te the velocity value
using a known thickness on a material sample. The steps for entering the velocity
are outlined below:
Using a Known Material Velocity
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 CAL menu is highlighted and displaying the submenu items.
2) Use the UP and DOWN arrow keys to scroll through the sub menu items
until VELOCITY is highlighted.
3) Press the ENTER key to display the Digits Edit Box.
4) Press the UP and DOWN arrow keys to scroll the highlighted value.
5) Press the LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys to scroll the digit locations.
6) Repeat steps 4 & 5 until the velocity number is correctly displayed.
7) Press the OK key to set the velocity and return to the menu screen, or ESC
to cancel entering the velocity.
8) Finally, press the MEAS key to return to the measurement screen and begin
taking readings.
