4.16 Adding a New Product

This section explains how to add a new product, following which a Full Learn should be carried
out to capture and save the metal detector settings for inspecting the product.
To add a new product, proceed as follows:
1. Select Menus > Set Up > Product to display the Product menu options which are listed and
described below.
2. Use the Navigation Keys
and press the OK / Enter Key
3. Use the Navigation Keys
the OK / Enter Key
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to scroll through all of the Product menu options until you have selected
and confirmed values for each option.
The Product menu options available are as follows:
Product No (number)
Each product must have a unique product number which is used by the software to store the
product settings for recall when the product is selected to be run.
Name
To assist with identification and selection, you should give all products a unique name, which
can be up to 20 alphanumerical characters in length.
Product type
The available options for selection are described below.
Unknown
l
This is the default option and is recommended for selection if you are in any doubt whether the
other options available are more appropriate. In effect you are letting the detector decide
which product type is most suitable to use.
If during the product Learn process no product effect is exhibited, the detector will
automatically select the Dry option anyway.
Dry
l
Select this option if you are sure that the product will exhibit no product effect. The detector will
then use the pre-set ferrite phase angle rather than learn from the actual product.
If during the product Learn process a product effect is exhibited, the detector will advise that the
Learn process has failed. You should then set the Product type to Unknown and repeat the learn
process.
Metal film
l
Select this option if the product to be inspected is foil packed.
