Operation	Setting the measurement methods

Automatic calibration

The functions for automatic calibration are in the “right“ function table:

AUTO CAL Switches on automatic calibration

GATE LOGIC Sets the gate for calibration

Description of automatic calibration can be found in Chapter 5.

How to change values of the gate settings please refer to chapter 5.2.

5.13Setting the measurement methods

MEASURE Method of measurement for sound path measurement

With this function you can select a method for the sound path measurement in the gate range. You have three possibilities:

•OFF: No measurement

•0 TO 1st: Measurement from zero point to the first or the highest echo above the threshold

•MULTECHO: Measurement between the first two echoes or between the two highest echoes above the threshold

Operation:

–Highlight the right function group in the left function table using I.

–With M select the required setting in MEASURE.
