This indicates that the program is ready to start the
measurement process. For the process to begin, the
KT-9 needs to get a zero reading of free space. There-
fore, please make sure that the sensor is at least 30 cm
away from any magnetically susceptible material at
this point.
This action will also clear the data buffers.
i)
Press the
c
key while holding the sensor at least 30cm
away from any magnetically susceptible material.
The output file is in ASCII format to allow you to import the
data into a variety of programs for plotting, analysis, etc.
If the sensor is closer than 30 cm to a magnetically suscepti-
ble body when you zero (measure free space), you may con-
taminate all the readings in the subsequent scan.
