Indicates a setting restriction. Indicates that you must check before usage. 【 】 Indicates information inscribed on the panel of this testing device. 6-2. EPS-02Hv2 Features * Measurement sensor is detected from the image for recognizing the measurement location The measurement object and measurement sensor are captured by a camera, and the measurement sensor is found within the image for identifying the measurement location.
6.Overview 6-3. Measurement Principle The EPS-02 system performs two main operations for enabling visualization of the electromagnetic field. First, it performs image recognition that identifies the measurement sensor location from the recording image. Second, it provides a color-coded distribution on the image indicating the strength of the signals detected by the measurement sensor.

6.Overview Protection (ICNIRP), and they are available in a 1998 version and 2010 version. Most of the current restrictions and standards for human health protection are based on these guidelines. These guidelines are available for download free of charge from the websites below. http://www.icnirp.de/ ICNIRP website http://www.jeic-emf.jp/social/icnipr.html...
The FT3470-91 magnetic field measuring instrument and FT3471-91 measurement sensor by Hioki are used. The magnetic field measuring instrument was specially adjusted for this system, and so its specifications are different from the typical product. For details, please contact NoiseKen or Hioki.
7.System Configuration Diagram 7-2. Functions of Each Device ① Web camera This is a general-purpose web camera. The measurement object is displayed and transferred to the PC. The web camera is connected to the PC by a USB cable. If necessary, the connection can be extended by a USB extension cable.
8-1. System Backup NoiseKen provides an optional service (additional charges apply) for installing the EPS-02Hv2 program in your PC before providing the program, but if the program is erased, install it from the supplied setup media.
8.Preparation 8-3. System Connections ① Connect the web camera to the PC using the USB cable. Any commercially-available USB cable can be used, but it must be a cable that supports the USB 2.0 standards. Be aware that the USB 2.0 standards limit the cables to a maximum of 1 extension and maximum length of 5 m.
9. Operation Procedure 9-1. Starting and Exiting the Software Starting the Software To start the software, double-click the EPS-02Hv2 shortcut icon on the desktop. Double-click Screen displayed immediately after the software is started Exiting the Software To exit the software, click the close button on the right end of the title bar or click Exit from the File menu.
9.Operation Procedure 9-2. Image Recognition Settings Image Recognition Setting Dialog Box To open the Image Recognition Setting dialog box, click Image Recognition Setting from the Set menu. Click Image Recognition Setting dialog box Adjust the camera position so that the measurement object can be captured by the camera. Take the following conditions into account during adjustment.
9.Operation Procedure Device Filters To open the Webcam Properties dialog box, click the Device Filters button. In the dialog box, the camera properties, such as zoom, white balance, and anti-flicker, can be set. Click Zoom White balance Anti Flicker Video Proc Amp screen Camera Control screen ...
9.Operation Procedure Other Settings To open the Other Settings dialog box, click the Other Settings button. In the dialog box, the color space / compression and camera processing can be set. Click Other Settings dialog box (1) Color Space / Compression The color space / compression of the camera can be changed.
9.Operation Procedure Image Recognition Setting Adjust the three parameters, Hue, Saturation, and Value, in the Image Processing Setting so that the color of the magnetic sensor can be recognized. The binarized image on the right side can be changed by moving the slider of each parameter. Hue: Sets the hue, such as red, blue, or yellow Saturation: Sets the intensity and purity of a hue Value: Sets the lightness of a color.
9.Operation Procedure 9-3. New Measurement (Setting Measurement Conditions) View Window To open a View window, click New Measurement from the File menu or click the New Measurement button on the toolbar. Whenever a View window is newly opened, it is numbered as follows: View1, View2, View3 ... These names can be changed freely when the file is saved after measurement.
9.Operation Procedure Condition Tab In the Condition tab, set the image division size, properties for the magnetic field measuring instrument, and other conditions. Condition items can be set only before measurement. After completion of measurement, all items are displayed but cannot be changed. Conditions (before measurement) Conditions (after measurement) Image Division Size...
9.Operation Procedure Capturing How to store spectrum data at the same measurement point (the same square of the grid) can be selected from SINGLE, FREE RUN, or PEAK HOLD. SINGLE: done only one time FREE RUN: overwritten and the latest data is retained PEAK HOLD: overwritten and the measurement data with the maximum value is retained Measurement Mode Selectable between two measurement modes: Magnetic Flux Density (10 Hz to 400 kHz/10 Hz to 2...

9.Operation Procedure 9-4. New Measurement (Performing Measurement) Performing Measurement To start measurement, click the START button in the upper right of the View window. During measurement, the PAUSE and STOP buttons are enabled. To suspend measurement, click the PAUSE button to suspend measurement, and to finish measurement, the STOP button.
9.Operation Procedure The EPS-02Hv2 software sends a command for data in-take to the Hioki magnetic field meter immediately after the sensor is recognized. After completion of data in-take, the software recognizes the sensor position again, and only when the sensor is found at the same point (position) where it was placed at the start of data in-take, the data is stored.
9.Operation Procedure Recapturing Camera Image If the STOP button is clicked after completion of measurement, the camera image switches from video to still image. If the still camera image includes an unnecessary object, such as the sensor, the camera image can be recaptured. Click Recapture Camera Image from the Window menu.
9.Operation Procedure 9-5. Measurement Data Analysis Measurement Data After completion of measurement, a square pointer will be displayed on the camera image. Dragging this pointer to the desired point can display the measurement data at the relevant point. The pointer automatically moves to the highest level point immediately after measurement is complete or the file is opened.
9.Operation Procedure Auto Distribution When the Auto Distribution checkbox is checked, the color map is made according to automatic distribution between the highest and lowest intensity. Immediately after measurement is complete or the file is opened, the Auto Distribution checkbox is always checked. To change the Upper/Lower Value to desired values, uncheck the Auto Distribution checkbox and click the Set button.
9.Operation Procedure Interpolation When the Interpolation checkbox is checked, the map data image is smoothly displayed by interpolation of the boundaries between divisions. Without interpolation With interpolation AXIS FOR MEASUREMENT Select the desired axis for measurement. Intensity distribution map is shown according to the selected axis. .
