Quick Start Guide
Three Axis Gaussmeter Model: GM09-3
A three-axis gaussmeter featuring touch-screen interface and rechargeable Li-ion battery compatible with the extensive
range of Hirst Hall sensor probes. Built-in "App" modes ensure standard tests and measurements can be carried out with
ease and minimal effort. Data-logging features allow the retrieval of data using a simple USB interface, no additional
software is needed as the GM09-3 appears as a USB mass storage device.
How to use the GM09-3
The GM09 Handheld Gaussmeter and 3 axis probe is used to measure Magnetic Flux Density or Magnetic Field Strength.
There are two key parts to the GM09-3:
1.
The Probe that senses the Magnetic Field and produces an electrical signal which uses a 3 axis Hall sensor element.
There is a data capture / hold button on the probe as shown below.
2. The GM09 Instrument itself, that then processes these electrical signals to display measurements that the user can read
off the display or capture.
