“Open project” icon – Allows you to open a previously saved .pqr project.
“Save project” icon – Allows you to save the current project.
“Print” icon – Allows you to print out the project. You may select in the printer dialog,
if you want to print out all of the data or selected readings only.
Setting a correction factor
See Chapter 2.2. The standard reading on the Resipod display indicates: Resistivityρ= 2πaV/l
[kΩcm], where “a” is the default probe spacing of the instrument, (either 38mm or 50mm).
The menu item “Device – Set measurement settings” allows a correction factor to be downloaded
onto the instrument, so that it gives a direct readout of the resistivity when being used with:
• The Variable Spacing Probe (381 01 094)
• The Bulk Resistivity Accessory (381 01 088)
• A different sample geometry
Note: When working with the AASHTO TP95-11 standard using the 38mm ver-
sion of the Resipod, no correction is required as this is already considered in the
figures given in the standard.
Note: Whenever a non-standard contact spacing, or a geometric correction fac-
tor is set, then all measurements on the Resipod are deleted. Therefore it is im-
portant to save any measurements stored on the Resipod before commencing.
