Calibration Reminder - GE USM 36 Series Technical Reference And Operating Manual

General setup

Calibration reminder

Certain test specifications require a recalibration of the
entire system (instrument, cable, probe, material) at
regular time intervals.
If you turn the reminder function of the USM 36 on, a re-
minder icon is displayed next to the A-scan as soon as
the scheduled point of time is reached (see Section Sta-
tus display icons, page 0-7, at the beginning of this op-
erating manual).
USM 36
You can turn on a short-term calibration reminder for a
time period within the range of 0.5 ... 4 hours and a re-
minder for the yearly calibration.
In the case of the yearly reminder, define the date at
which the calibration should be carried out. You can de-
cide how long before this date the reminder icon should
be displayed.
