A Pentium 166MHz or faster processor with at least 32 megabytes of physical RAM is required. You
should have 40 megabytes of free disk space before attempting to install NDT Link.
NDT Link requires an available communications port in order to transfer data to and from the gauge.
NDT Link supports COM1, COM2, COM3, and COM4.
15.1.4 Installing NDT Link
NDT Link comes on a CD-ROM with an automatic installer program. Place the CD in your
computer's CD tray and close the door. Open the CD-ROM by double clicking on the My Computer
ICON, then double click on the CD. Finally, double click on the SETUP icon to begin the installation.
Refer to the help section in NDT Link software for the complete operating manual, setup, and
operation.

The XFER menu of your gauge is used in conjunction with the NDT Link PC software. The steps

16 STORAGE
Your gauge has a Liquid Crystal Display. If the display is heated above 50°C (120°F) it
may be damaged. This can happen if the gauge is left in a car parked in strong sunlight.
Always store the gauge in its case when it is not being used.
If the gauge is to remain unused for long periods of time, remove the batteries and store
them separately. This will prevent damage to the gauge in the event of malfunction of
the batteries.
17 MAINTENANCE
You own one of the finest sonic gauges in the world. If looked after, it will last a lifetime.
17.1 Faults
Your gauge is designed to give many years reliable service under normal operating and storage
conditions. The gauge does not contain any user-serviceable components. In the unlikely event of
a fault, the gauge should be returned to your local Elcometer NDT supplier or directly to Elcometer
NDT. The warranty will be invalidated if the instrument has been opened.
