12.9 Automatic Echo Optimization (Auto Set)

The MiniMax is equipped with a built in Auto Set feature for echo optimization. The
Auto Set uses a variety of algorithms, evaluating the positive and negative and
negative cycles, and selects the best phase (polarity) to use for measurement. It also
optimizes the gain, sets the delay and width, and activates and sets the gate
accordingly. Use of this feature will save the user a great deal of time in the
measurement process. In order to use the Auto Set properly, an approximate length
of the bolt must be entered into the MiniMax. The approximate length tells the
MiniMax where to start looking for the echo. The MiniMax will search +/- 5% from
the value entered. The following procedures outline the Auto Set feature.
