Activating the gates:

Automatically: The gates are automatically activated, when a measurement

mode is selected. Gate1 is active in all measurement modes.

These modes

have been internally setup at the Dakota factory. Therefore, if the user selects
the Thru Coat (E-E) option, an internal setup will be loaded, and 2 gates will
automatically be activated. This setup will work fine for the majority of all
common applications. The user has the ability to fine adjust the gates
settings, which will be further explained in the sections that follow.


Manually: The gates can also be activated manually by using the Hot or

Tabbed menus. For example: If any of the pulse echo modes (PE, PECT,
PETP) had been selected in diagram 1, only gate 1 will have been activated
from the factory setup. However, the user may have a requirement to activate
and utilize more than one gate, depending on the application.
