3. Setting Up the DMS 2
Step 4: Press below the selection titled PROBE. You'll
note a list of probes that can be used with the DMS 2.
Step 5: The specified probe will be the choice last displayed.
Selecting a TG Measurement Mode (TGMODE-TGMODE)
Step 1: Activate the TGMODE submenu (if it's not already
activated) by selecting it with
lighted. Five selections will appear across the bottom of the
display screen. BE SURE THAT YOU'VE ALREADY
SELECTED A PROBE TYPE AS DESCRIBED ABOVE.
Step 2: Press below the selection titled TGMODE.
You'll note that some of the following measurement modes
are available: DUAL, DUAL-MULTI, S-PEAK, S-FLANK, SIP,
TopCOAT, and AUTO-V (Figure 3-5).
• DUAL—Used with a dual-element probe to test corrosion
thickness in NON-COATED materials, especially on
curved and irregular backwall surfaces.
• DUAL-M—Used with a dual-element probe to test thick-
ness in COATED materials. (no manual gain adjustment
available)

or so that it's high-
• S-PEAK—Used with a single-element probe to test thick-
ness in COATED materials, especially those with
smooth, parallel surfaces. (no manual gain adjustment
available)
• S-FLANK—Used with a single-element probe to test
thickness in COATED materials, especially those with
smooth, parallel surfaces.
• SIP—Used with a single-element probe to test thickness
in NON-COATED materials, especially those with
smooth, parallel surfaces.
• TopCOAT—Used with a special TopCOAT probe to test
thickness in COATED materials. Especially well suited
to curved and irregular (pitted) backwall surfaces.
(Optional)
• AUTO-V—Used with a special TopCOAT probe to
measure NON-COATED materials. Does NOT require
knowledge of the measured material's type and
calculates velocity without a like-material calibration
standard. (Optional)
Step 3: Note that only those modes that are supported by
your probe selection will be listed as options.
Step 4: The TG mode will be set to the choice last dis-
played.
