can show various characteristics
of the signal,

55
00:03:09,311 --> 00:03:12,984
such as its peak amplitude,
phase angle,

56
00:03:12,986 --> 00:03:16,623
and a selection of other
configurable readings.

57
00:03:16,625 --> 00:03:19,651
The NORTEC 600 offers

The NORTEC 600 user interface
features 5 menu keys.

63
00:03:38,301 --> 00:03:42,081
Pressing a menu key toggles
between the different menu pages,

64
00:03:42,083 --> 00:03:44,901
for locating parameters easily.

65
00:03:44,903 --> 00:03:48,354
Once a parameter is found,
it can be selected

66
00:03:48,356 --> 00:03:50,913
with help of the Parameter keys,

67
00:03:50,914 --> 00:03:55,498
and its value changed
by rotating the Smart Knob.

68
00:03:55,499 --> 00:04:00,383
The NORTEC 600 also features
a set of 6 Direct Access keys,

69
00:04:00,384 --> 00:04:03,311
in order to speed up the most
common operations,

70
00:04:03,313 --> 00:04:07,448

or phase angle.

71
00:04:07,449 --> 00:04:11,093
The instrument includes
several new highly-acclaimed features,

72
00:04:11,094 --> 00:04:14,251
such as the new
Application Selection menu.

73

This menu streamlines the
configuration of the instrument

74
00:04:17,339 --> 00:04:21,028
for a given inspection,
literally within seconds.

75
00:04:21,029 --> 00:04:23,203
Once an Application has been selected,

76
00:04:23,204 --> 00:04:25,638
only a few parameters
need to be changed

77
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,853
in order to calibrate the signals.

78
00:04:28,854 --> 00:04:31,748
Other innovative features include:

79
00:04:31,749 --> 00:04:34,728
The ability to calibrate
from frozen signals

80
00:04:34,729 --> 00:04:38,431
which separates the scanning motion
from the calibration.

81
00:04:38,433 --> 00:04:40,749
An improved filter system

82
00:04:40,751 --> 00:04:43,881
displaying standard figure
6 signals

83
00:04:43,883 --> 00:04:47,268
for rotary scanner
applications.

84
00:04:47,270 --> 00:04:50,818
The All Settings menu
which is useful to quickly

85
00:04:50,819 --> 00:04:53,914
configure the instrument
from a procedure.

86
00:04:53,916 --> 00:04:56,260

An All-in-one display mode,

89
00:05:02,188 --> 00:05:05,053
showing up to 3 configurable traces,

90
00:05:05,054 --> 00:05:07,836
in dual frequency operation.

91
00:05:07,838 --> 00:05:11,258
And Automatic mixing
for instant configuration

92
00:05:11,260 --> 00:05:15,764
in applications such as
heat exchanger tube testing.

93
00:05:15,766 --> 00:05:20,676
The NORTEC 600 features an easy
to use archiving and reporting system.

94
00:05:20,678 --> 00:05:24,560
A single press of the SAVE key
instantly creates a file

95
00:05:24,561 --> 00:05:26,788
on the instrument.
The instrument can store

96
00:05:26,789 --> 00:05:28,889
up to 500 files.

97
00:05:28,891 --> 00:05:32,016
Each file includes both DATA
information

98
00:05:32,018 --> 00:05:35,070
and PROGRAM (SETUP) information

99
00:05:35,071 --> 00:05:39,951
so there is never any disconnect
between the programs or data files.

100
00:05:39,953 --> 00:05:43,513
The NORTEC 600 features
an on-board file preview

101
00:05:43,515 --> 00:05:45,816
before the files are loaded.

102
00:05:45,818 --> 00:05:48,266
The on-board text editor also allows

103
00:05:48,268 --> 00:05:51,343
renaming files as needed.

104
00:05:51,344 --> 00:05:53,531
Once the inspection is completed

105
00:05:53,533 --> 00:05:57,413
the files can easily be transferred
to a computer via the USB cable

106
00:05:57,414 --> 00:06:01,291
and viewed using
NORTEC PC software.

107
00:06:01,293 --> 00:06:05,053
In NORTEC PC, signals or
parameters can be viewed,

108
00:06:05,054 --> 00:06:09,338
printed, copied, and easily
exported into a PDF report

109
00:06:09,339 --> 00:06:11,628
at the touch of a button.

110
00:06:11,630 --> 00:06:15,633
The “PDF all” function
comes in particularly handy

111
00:06:15,635 --> 00:06:21,243
to archive all inspection files
in a single operation.

112
00:06:21,244 --> 00:06:24,026
With its rugged, field-ready casing

113
00:06:24,028 --> 00:06:26,956
and its vibrant display,
the NORTEC 600

114
00:06:26,958 --> 00:06:29,824
is an industry leading
eddy current flaw detector.

115
00:06:29,826 --> 00:06:33,155
The intuitive interface
and reporting capabilities

116
00:06:33,156 --> 00:06:36,003
of NORTEC PC make the NORTEC 600

117
00:06:36,005 --> 00:06:38,419
