System Linearity:Vertical = 0.5% Full Screen Height (FSH); Horizontal /-0.2% Trace Full Screen Width (FSW)Reject (Selectable):Up to 80% Linear reject (removes baseline noise without affecting indication amplitude) or Up to 50% Suppressive reject (increase zero offset and reduces amplitude of all echoes).
LED Warning when active.Units:Metric (mm), inch (in) or microsecondsDisplay:Color Transflective VGA (640 x 480) TFT

Colors: 9 color options with variable brightness.Gate Monitor:Two independent gates for measurement and monitoring. Start and width fully adjustable over the entire range of the instrument. Levels adjustable from 0% to 100%, positive or negative triggering on each gate with audible & visible alarms. Gate resolution is 5Ns.Zoom:Expands range and delay to cover the area set by Gate 1 start & width controls.AGC:Automatic Gain Control automatically sets the signal in Gate 1 to a level between 10% and 90% FSH, tolerance between 5% and 20%.Contour:Trailing-Edge-slew-rate control to reduce half cycles in rectified modes. Selectable from one of 6 levels.Waveform Smoothing:Select from

1. None (both min and max values are displayed in the A-Scan)
2. Fill (Min values set to baseline value, produces a solid A-Scan)
3. Smooth (min values ignored, produces a clear outline A-Scan)

Persistence:Causes previous A-scans to “fade out” at a user-determined rateAuto-Cal:Provides automatic calculation of velocity and probe zero from 2 reference echoes.Reference Waveform:Displays a previously stored A-log in a color different from the active display, enabling a quick visual check of the differences.Clock:Built in, battery-backed RTC keeps time and date.
