• Zoom: This will affect the horizontal scale of your data display. Choices are ½, 1, 2, 3, and 4 with
higher numbers zooming more. If you have Focus toggled this will have the effect of stretching the
vertical scale of the focused data which may make it easier to see.
• Save Image: This will store a screen shot as a PNG image format. Each image will have the same
name as the GPR data file. Multiple images of the same GPR file will have a letter tag added. For
example: FILE__056A, FILE__056B, etc. You will need to save and transfer the GPR file to get the
image. See Section 6 for data transfer.
• New File: This will stop and save your current file and begin collecting a new one. The file number
in the top-left corner will advance by 1.
• Focus: This will toggle Focus Mode off/on. See below for more on Focus Mode.
• Calibrate: This will allow you to perform three different types of depth calibration on your data.
See Section 6 more details.
• Close File: This will stop and save the current file and return you to the ScanMax menu screen.
• Mark: This will write a red-dashed user mark to the Backup Cursor location when the option is
pushed. This is useful to note the location of something you want to remember. You can also add a
mark by pulling the trigger button on the handle.
Using Focus Mode
Focus mode is designed to assist you in locating objects by removing the tails from the hyperbolas and
showing you a clearer image of the target’s location. Note that even though the output of focus mode may
look like a round object, there is still no size or shape information in the data.
Focus mode will appear as a linked split screen with the focused data on the top and the corresponding
raw data on the bottom. Focus mode works best when the scan density is set to high. You can also use
Zoom to expand the image.
