4.4 Basic Settings Configuration
In order the CHRocodile C to be operational for startup some basic parameters should be set up. You
can also refer to the CHRocodile C quick start guide documentation.
Basic setting configuration consists in selection of:
• Measuring Range: The CHRocodile C could accept up to 8 calibration tables. Each calibration
table corresponds to a unique optical probe. Consequently, depending on the optical probe
which is mounted on the CHRocodile C unit, the operator must select the right measuring
range or calibration table. (Cf. command $SEN in Appendix 1)
• Data transmission: The CHRocodile C can transmit different data: up to 4 Altitudes, up to 4
Intensities and up to 3 Thicknesses. Depending on the application, operator must select the
right data. (Cf. command $SODX in Appendix 1)
• LED intensity level: The LED intensity Level can be adjusted from 0 to 100%. As for
measuring rate, this adjustment essentially depends on object reflectivity. Adjust LED intensity
in order to obtain a high signal intensity, but avoid saturating the detector (intensity LED blinks
orange). In order to adjust LED intensity, use the LAI command (Cf. Appendix 1).
