More about the 410 gaussmeter
Max hold
The largest field magnitude measured (since the last reset) is displayed with the max hold function.
Filter
When the field being measured is noisy, using the filter function will average readings to produce a more stable display.
Alarm
An audible alarm is sounded and the display indicator flashes when the measured field is higher than the keypad-entered alarm point.
Zero probe
Used to eliminate probe offsets and small external fields.
Relative reading
Used to show small variations in large background fields. When activated, relative function displays deviation from a specific setpoint.
Autoranging
Automatically selects the appropriate range.
Memory hold
On power down the Model 410 stores the complete instrument configuration in nonvolatile memory, including the calibration number and probe offset, making it unnecessary in most cases to go through a setup procedure on power up.
Probes
Transverse probe—The transverse probe measures magnetic fields
perpendicular to the probe axis.
Axial probe—The axial probe has the Hall sensor mounted perpendicular to the probe axis and measures magnetic fields parallel to the probe axis.
