P803 SHOT / PULSE MODE
Use this feature to increase response independent from Measurement Response (P003).
Select "short and long" to have short and long acoustic shots fired each time a vessel is
scanned. Select "short" to have only short shots fired if the Echo Confidence ( P805 ) produced
by a short shot exceeds the short Confidence Threshold ( P804 ).
This value is automatically altered when Measurement Response ( P003 ) is altered.
See TECHNICAL REFERENCE Measurement Response.
values: 1 = short
2 = short and long
P804 CONFIDENCE THRESHOLD
Use this feature when an incorrect material level is reported.
The short and long Confidence Thresholds are preset to 10 and 5 respectively. If the Echo
Confidence (P805) of a particular echo exceeds the Confidence Threshold, that echo is
considered for evaluation by Sonic Intelligence
TM
.
values: x.y x = short ( 0 to 99 ), y = long ( 0 to 99 )
P805 (V) ECHO CONFIDENCE
Use this feature to monitor the effect of transducer aiming, location, and mechanical
transducer / mounting isolation.
This is the value displayed when is pressed for 4 seconds in the RUN mode.
Both short and long shot Echo Confidence is displayed.
" -- " is displayed if the respective shot ( short or long ) was not included in the evaluation.
" E " is displayed if the transducer cable is open or short circuited.
" --:-- " is displayed if no shots have been taken yet.
values: x:y x = short ( 0 to 99 ), y = long ( 0 to 99 )
P806 (V) ECHO STRENGTH
Use this feature to view the strength ( in dB above 1 µV RMS ) of the echo selected to base
the distance calculation upon.
values: 0 to 99
P807 (V) NOISE
Observe the average and peak ambient noise ( in dB above 1 µV RMS ) being processed.
The noise level is a combination of transient acoustic noise and electrical noise ( induced into
the transducer cable or receiving circuitry itself ).
values: x:y x = average ( -99 to 99 ), y = peak ( -99 to 99 )
