CG-5 Gravity Meter Operation Manual - Scintrex

Software FeaturesThe software is based on a Scintrex proprietary operating system thatprovides a GUI (Graphic User Interface) windows style interface and manyadditional features. The system is upgradeable in the field using both RS-232and USB connections.Automated Data CorrectionsCorrections provided in the system include Tide, Instrument Tilt,Temperature, advanced Noisy Reading Rejection, Seismic Noise Filter / FIRFilter and Near Terrain Corrections.Self DiagnosticTo protect the data, the CG-5 verifies data integrity on power up andmaintains the status of all calibration parameters set by the user and theintegrity of the data base.User CalibrationFor maintenance purposes, the system provides an easy-to-use graphicinterface for entering and updating calibrations. Computations are performedautomatically, for Tilt offsets, for example, eliminating the user need tocalculate parameters manually as in previous systems. The CG-5 alsoautomatically stores variables related to calibrations.Reading Data PresentationData is presented in a digitized Signal Graphic format that resembles anoscilloscope display, and also provides a numeric, single screen that enableseasy viewing of all parameters. Leveling information is presented via agraphic cross-hair format that simplifies the leveling process.Data RecallData recall can be either on a graphic line profile basis or accomplishedthrough numeric individual reading of parameters.Data DumpFor versatility, the CG-5 provides two methods of dumping data (i.e. RS-232and very fast USB) in a binary data image format. Post processed (i.e. output)data can be obtained in a variety of formats, including:xviCG-5 Manual - part # 867700 Revision 5
