Signal Strength and Amplification Values
Press the number 8 key. The display shows “BYPASS IMPAX?”.
Press the Enter/Yes key. (Note: When the IMPAX is bypassed there is no machine protection.)
The display shows “C1 XXPYY XXIZZ”.
C1 is the current channel, blow, station.... that you are looking at.
XXPYY - The P in this set of characters means you are looking at the Peak values.
XXIZZ - The I in this set of characters means you are looking at the Integrate values.
XX is the current amplification value for the corresponding channel. FF is the maximum and 00
is the minimum amplification value for any channel. If you get a FF or FE reading on any
channel there is not enough sensor signal for that channel to properly tune into the Peak or
Integrate target. If you get a 00 or 01 reading on any channel there is to much sensor signal for
that channel to properly tune into the Peak or Integrate target.
YY is the current input signal value converted into hexadecimal format, this value should be
very close to the hexadecimal equivalent of the Peak target. The hexadecimal equivalent to the
standard Peak target of 96 is 60.
ZZ is the current input signal value converted into hexadecimal format, this value should be very
close to the hexadecimal equivalent of the Integrate target. The hexadecimal equivalent to the
standard Integrate target of 128 is 80.
Press the Next/No key one time for each channel you wish to look at. If you keep pressing
Next/No the IMPAX will keep stepping through each channel, when you reach the last channel
the IMPAX will go back to the first channel and start over.
If you think the channel you are looking at has an invalid amplification value, you can press the
0 key to retune that channel.
You can press the Enter/Yes key at any time to get back to the “DIAGNOSTICS” screen.
