Additional Parameters You May Want to Set Up

Listed below are additional parameters you may want to set up to get your particular
pipeline application running to your satisfaction.
Suppression-Time and Suppression-Amplitude Functions
These functions are used to prevent vibration from the diverter valve interfering with the
search head. For more details, see page 130.
Reject-Confirm Function
If your diverter valve is equipped with a position detector, this function allows the
detector to confirm that, during a reject cycle, the diverter valve has properly completed
both the "open" and "close" phases of the reject cycle. In addition, if the diverter valve
fails, the detector can stop the flow of product, or notify you that a failure has
occurred—for example, because the air supply to the valve has failed, or miscellaneous
residue has clogged the valve. For more details, see page 137.
Warnings, Alarms, and Faults (WAFs)
Many of the detector's functions provide a warning, alarm, or fault when a condition
needing your attention occurs. This menu—in conjunction with the appropriate
hardwired external device—allows this to happen. For more details, see page 214.
Copying and Pasting Product Parameters
This function is particularly useful when you are testing multiple products. You can save
considerable amounts of time and effort using the copy and paste functions, because
you do not need to re-enter the product parameters for each product, re-run the
calibrations, and so on. For more details, see page 173.
