To connect the cable to the Prisma: 1 Unscrew the protective cap on the right side of the instrument and place it on the back of the unit (over the CE markings). 2 Connect the phased array connector to the I-PEX connector and secure it with the hand screws. Phased array connector (Samtec) I/O connector S connector Copyright © 2015 Sonatest Limited - 2015-03-16 19 Connecting the WP2 Figure 5-3 Connectors on the right and back sides of the Prisma 3 Connect the 8-pin Lemo connector to the encoder input (E connector on the back side of the Prisma). 4 Connect the GPIO, 8-pin, Lemo to the I/O input (I/O connector on the back side of the Prisma). 5 Turn on the Prisma and, on the Inspection tab, select Wheel Probe 2 in the GPIO list. To connect the cable to the RapidScan2: 1 On the multi-way connector, turn the black handle to the open position. 2 Connect the multi-way connector on the RapidScan2 panel. The connector should offer no resistance. If the connector does not easily fit, verify the condition of the connector pins. 3 Once the multi-way connector is installed, turn the black handle to lock it in place. 4 Connect the 7-pin to 8-pin Lemo adaptor to the multi-way connector. 5 Connect the 8-pin Lemo (encoder) connector to the adapter.

With the OmniScan MX2, the HD15 to Lemo-16 adaptor is required. Tips for a basic setup in OmniScan Set the inspection plan to raster scan. Select the encoder 1 as quadrature. Select the encoder 2 as a clicker and steps as your index step. In Preferences, set Din1 for the Reset Scan position. Set Din2 to None because it is a clicker. Set Din3 to Acquisition Enable. In the Gate/Alarm settings, set alarm 1 for gate A and alarm 2 for gate B. On the Output menu, set gates A and B as outputs 1 and 2 respectively.

It provides information about settings, calibrations and data extraction for both veo and Prisma test instruments. 7.1 Interface triggering (Zero Synchronization) The interface triggering is used to modify the reception of ultrasound signals. When set to Yes, the IFT Active item enables the part interface triggering for this scan. It is available for the following types or primary scans: •A-scan (mono) •L-scan (phased array) Once enabled, a new gate (white named "I") is made available in the A-scan view. Interface triggering is used to synchronize signal interface when it varies from one beam to another. This corrects the distance between the probe and the part when the wedge does not have a fixed height. This feature overcomes delay variations due to the tyre deformation. To set the interface triggering: 1 On the test instrument, press the key. 2 Select the Scan tab and, on the Scan menu, s…

Operational Description

11‐ Operational description The Wireless Remote is made to wirelessly transfer commands to the main ultrasound device through the WheelProbe 2. There are three push‐buttons used to transmit the following commands: Record/Stop, Next Index, Reset Encoder Position. If desired, these commands can be entered directly on the ultrasound device. The Wireless Remote is powered from a 3 V CR2032 button cell and transmit data at a 433.92 MHz frequency. It is based on Linx technologies’ encoder (MS series) and transmitter (LR series). The encoder is configured to use a 9600 baudrate. Whenever a button is pressed, the encoder wakes up, encode the pressed button, send it to the transmitter as long as the button is pressed and go back to sleep when the button is released. When the transmitter receives the encoded data, it wirelessly sends the data to the WheelProbe 2 which relays the command to the ultrasound device through its GPIO connector.
