Stability Indication in Single Echo & Echo-Echo
Modes
To help indicate when a Single Echo or
Echo-Echo measurement is stable – and
thus probably reliable – the gauge changes
the colour of the thickness measurement
number from Red to Yellow when the
measurement has been stable for 2
consecutive seconds.
When measuring using SE or EE mode
once you have a measurement keep the
probe still and wait for the gauge to signal
a “stable reading”.
If the ultrasound signal is poor or erratic
then the thickness value may remain Red
– thus indicating the measurement may
not be reliable.
When using the Data Logging feature –
measurement will only be logged when the
gauge has detected a stable reading.
Not Stable – RED
Stable - Yellow
