11.0 Aligning the sensors
The sensor for electric fields only measures in
one dimension.
You can achieve optimal results by making sure
that the field goes through the sides of the devi-
ce (Y axis), see picture.
The sensor is located in the upper left corner of
the device (right below the AUDIO STATUS dis-
play).
The sensor for alternating magnetic fields can
measure in 3 dimensions (isotropically). Thus,
you will always get an accurate measurement
independantly on how you align the device.
When measuring the X axis only, the magnetic
field needs to be aligned that it goes through the
front of the unit. Likewise, it needs to go through
the sides for Y axis measurements, or through
the top/bottom for Z axis measurements (see
picture).
The sensor is located at the center of the devi-
ce (below the INFO display).
The sensor for static magnetic fields can mea-
sure in 3 dimensions (isotropically). Thus, you
will always get an accurate measurement no
matter how you align the device.
When measuring the X axis, the magnetic field
needs to be aligned such that it goes through
the front of the unit. Likewise, it needs to go
through the sides for Y axis measurements, or
through the top/bottom for Z axis measure-
ments (see picture). The sensor is located in the
upper left corner next to the SMA input (below
the nameplate).
