Definition Of Terms - Thermo Scientific DSP2 Installation And Operation Manual

Phase Refers to the phase vector of the product signal.
Mode Groups the phase vectors into wet (near 0°) and dry (near 90°)
Residual Product effect that cannot be eliminated with phase compensation. This feature requires
the installation of a photo eye and can only be used with discrete products. This feature is not used in gravity
applications.
Fixed Any feature which is fixed will not be automatically updated.
Auto Any feature in auto will be automatically updated. This feature requires the installation
of a photo eye and can only be used with discrete products. This feature is not used in gravity applications.
Hold This will maintain the entered parameter and will not be included during a 'product learn'. For example,
if sensitivity is on -hold the sensitivity setting will not be included during a 'product learn'.
Head Gain Selects a high or low gain setting.
Thresholds The system maintains two independent thresholds: the conductive threshold and the
magnetic threshold. These thresholds depend on external factors such as the installation environment and the
type of product being inspected. This menu is used to set these thresholds. The standard threshold values
are 100 for both. This should be fine for most installations.
Sensitivity This adjusts or sets the sensitivity of the detector. A higher sensitivity number means the detector will
detect a smaller piece of metal.
Learn Path The learn path is displayed when the learn hard key is pressed. The features which will be included in
the learn path will be marked with a box beside them. Any feature that is 'off' or 'on hold' will not be included
in the learn process.
