The 38DL PLUS recognizes the transducer through the identification pin located in
the molded plug of the cable. Transducer recognition allows the 38DL PLUS to
automatically recall setup parameters for the transducer along with a corresponding
V-path correction. This generally provides the highest degree of accuracy and
repeatability. For best performance, Olympus recommends using an Olympus dual
element transducer. Olympus cannot guarantee proper performance with other dual
element transducers or transducers that are not designed for use with the 38DL PLUS.
If a dual element transducer without a recognition pin is plugged into a 38DL PLUS,
the instrument prompts you to select a generic transducer setup or one of the
previously created custom stored transducer setup. The 38DL PLUS has the ability to
build and store a custom transducer setup for nonrecognized dual element
transducers in the frequency range of 1 MHz to 10 MHz.
12.2 Creating a Setup for Nonstandard Dual Element Transducers
The 38DL PLUS automatically detects standard D79X series dual element transducers
and automatically loads the appropriate setup. When you use a nonstandard dual
element transducer, you need to create a custom setup.
To create a setup for a nonstandard dual element transducer
1. Connect the nonstandard dual element transducer to the 38DL PLUS.
2. In the GENERIC SETUP SELECTION screen that appears (see Figure 12-1 on
page 213):
a) In the SETUP TYPE list, select DEFAULT.
b) In the SELECT SETUP list, select the setup that best matches the frequency of
the connected transducer.
