IntroductionInformation about this manual
1.2 Information about this manual
In the following you will find information about how to
use this manual. Please read these instructions care-
fully in order to operate all DM4 functions quickly and
reliably.
This will enable you to take full advantage of the in-
struments function range. At the same time, you will
also avoid malfunction and operating errors which, in
turn, would cause incorrect test results. In the long
run, these errors could lead to injuries to persons or
material damage.
Important information
Even if you have experience in ultrasonic testing it is
imperative that you observe the information contained
in Chapter 1.4. Here you will find important limitations
and general conditions for thickness testing (training,
knowledge of the special testing requirements, selec-
tion of the most suitable test setup). In addition to this
you will find information about ultrasonic testing with
the DM4 in Chapter 1.5 which must be observed so
that correct readings can be guaranteed.
Please always look up in Chapter 12 to see if there
are any current changes. This chapter describes cor-
rections which have been added at short notice and
which are not yet included in the general manual. If
there are no additional corrections, the chapter re-
mains empty.
Instrument operation is easy and quick to learn. In
order to use the instrument as quickly as possible, you
should become acquainted with the preparation as
well as with the basic functions. Therefore, carefully
read the following chapters:
Chapter 3 Preparations for operation
Here you will find all the preparatory steps necessary
for the application of the instrument.
Chapter 4 Basics of operation
This gives you an overlook into the operation concept
of the instrument as well as about the basic operation.
Chapter 5 Operation

by the DM4 instruments.
