5.4 Using a Strip Chart View
The Magna-Mike 8600 offers a strip chart view (see Figure 5-7 on page 98) to help
trend the thickness as the user scans over an area to be measured. The strip chart
measurements are updated at the 60 Hz measurement rate. This function is only a
visual aid to show how the thickness changes from location to location and does not
produce any type of printout. Strip charts cannot be saved or recalled in the internal
data logger. The upper and lower limits of the strip chart can be set, and high and low
alarm set points can be added. The user can choose to view live statistics, and display
or hide their values (minimum value (MIN), maximum value (MAX), and AV E R A G E
value).
