FAQ
- How do I set the correct gap voltage?
Use the Proximitor reading and keep the value near mid-scale.
- Can I use this probe with non-4140 targets?
Yes, but accuracy may drop because the system uses 4140 steel as the base curve.
- Why does the signal show noise at high speed?
Check cable routing and reduce EMI near power lines.
- What is the best way to confirm probe health?
Measure the resistance and confirm the probe tip stays clean.
- Can I extend the cable?
Use only matched Bently Nevada cables to keep system accuracy.
