After Sensor Installation
SCAN
The sensors can be scanned before the test is started.
No data are recorded when scanning. Set the switch to
OFF when scanning is completed; scanning sensors
uses battery power. During a test, this switch is inoper-
ative.
Running a Test
Recording
Starts and stops a test.
Begin the test by setting the recording switch to the
"ON" position. In a Delta test this can be done before
the slug is introduced or the pump is turned on because
data is recorded only when water level changes occur.
However, the elapsed time starts at the time the switch
is set. Data collection is started in Logarithmic tests at
the time the recording switch is set to the on position.
Stop the test by setting the recording switch to the
"OFF" position. At this point, the PST records time, all
sensor readings, test number and the battery voltage.
