ANGLE (Angle of incidence)

The ANGLE function enables you to adjust the angle of
incidence of your probe for the material used. This val-
ue is required for the automatic calculation of the flaw
position.
Adjustment range: 0° ... 90°
– Select the ANGLE function.
– Use the right-hand rotary knob to select the required
setting.

X-VALUE (X-value of the probe)

The function X-VALUE enables you to set the X-value
(distance between the probe's leading face and probe
index/sound exit point) of the probe used. This value is
required for the automatic calculation of the reduced
projection distance.
Adjustment range: 0 ... 100 mm/0 ... 40"
