5.7 Depth of field
The depth of field setting sets optimized transmission parameters depending on the depth of
the object of interest.
The default setting is “Intermediate Field”:
Tx frequency: 40 kHz
Tx voltage: 100 V
Max Tx time: 1000 μs
This is a useful preset for a typical depth of 1.2 to 1.3m.
The operating frequency parameter defines the frequency of the pulse applied to the DPC-
transducer.
There are three other options:
“Near Field” for superficial objects – with a typical depth of 0.5 to 0.6m
Tx frequency: 60 kHz
Tx voltage: 50 V
Max Tx time: 500 μs
“Far Field” for deep objects – with a typical depth of 2.2 to 2.4m
Tx frequency: 30 kHz
Tx voltage: 150 V
Max Tx time: 200 μs
“Custom” – freely configurable by the user
