material being tested. This mode is useful when there is concern regarding the profile of
the blind surface. This can also be a useful view when
scanning for pits and flaws.

11.3 Saving a Setup

Once the TI-CMX parameters and features have be adjusted for an application, the user
may elect to save these setting to a specific setup location for future use. This can poten-
tially save time and reduce error between users.

It is sometimes necessary to rename a previously saved setup, or add additional com-
ments about a particular setup. The setup name may have been entered incorrectly, or
the user needs to use the setup for a completely different project. An inspector’s name or
other comments about the project may also be required for additional documentation
purposes. The following procedures outline the necessary steps for saving and editing a
setup:

1. Press the MENU key once to activate the menu items tab. Press

the MENU key multiple times to tab right and the ESC key
multiple times to tab left until the SETUP menu is highlighted
and displaying the submenu items.

sub menu items until SAVE is highlighted.

List Box.
