Selecting the Transducer Type
If the TI-CMX does not identify a specific transducer type on initial power up, the user
be required to select a type from a predefined list of types by diameter and frequency. B
selecting a transducer type from a predefined list, the TI-CMX can recall specific proper
ties about the transducer.
NOTE: Once the transducer has been selected, the TI-CMX will store and recall this tra
ducer type every time the TI-CMX is powered on/off. The type will only change if the u
physically selects another transducer type from the list, or selects a previously saved setu
However, the TI-CMX will continue to take you through these steps each time the gauge
powered up. You'll notice that the probe type previously selected will be highlighted eve
time the probe type screen is displayed. Use the following steps to select your transduce
type:
1. Press the OK or ESC keys to display the factory list of
transducer types (by diameter and frequency).
2. Press the UP and DOWN arrow keys to scroll through the
transducer list until the appropriate type is highlighted.
3. Press the ENTER key to select the transducer type and display
over write existing probe screen.
4. Press the OK key to overwrite the existing probe type with the
newly selected probe type. The zero probe screen will be
displayed. Proceed to the zero probe section that follows.
