Testing the receiver channels with the BITE
Matrix functionality
The page allows you to monitor the average signal values or signal phases from each
Matrix
of the channels and transducer elements in the ME70. The presentation is provided on a
matrix corresponding to the element locations in the transducer. For receiver testing, the
ME70 must be operational, and both operational and BITE parameters must be known.
Prerequisites
The ME70 has been set up with its hardware units connected as specified in the ME70
Installation manual.
• If applicable: The transducer is replaced with a dummyload.
• The ME70 system is turned on and operates normally.
