water level chart, pressure chart, and flux chart), Settings, and Raw Data screens from that
test can all be viewed. Scroll through the available information by using the UP and DOWN

• Delete. Deletes all test data in device memory. There is no way to delete individual tests or
readings from the infiltrometer, it erases all test data.
WARNING: Deleting test data permanently removes it from the control unit, and it cannot be recovered. It is
recommended that you download any test data prior to deleting the test data from the instrument.
3.2.2 INSERTION RING
The insertion ring is available in two depths: 5 cm and 10 cm. The 5-cm insertion ring
(Figure26) is primarily designed for sites with good soil structure. It reduces the impact
from inserting the ring, so it is recommended for most sites. The 10-cm insertion ring was
designed for sites with a disturbed or loose soil surface as well as sites with high fluxes due
to macropores. The deeper insertion ring can also be helpful in forest or organic soils with a
deep duff or organic layer at the surface.
