7.6 Printing Setting Values
The current configuration settings in a Speed Sensor can easily be printed for a record
of values. A preview of the pages to be printed can be selected by clicking on “Print
Preview”. To print the pages, select “Print” from the Options pull-down menu. A Windows
Print screen will appear for you to select a printer to print the file to. Select the desired
printer or use the default printer. The table of configuration values will print with a header
at the top of each page that shows the date, Sensor type, and software version.

7.7 Fork Test
A Fork Test can be run to ensure proper operation of a Speed Sensor radar. Tuning
forks are calibrated to ring at a certain frequency that simulates a Doppler return from a
moving object. Since they are not truly directional signals and since the radar normally
filters out non-directional signals, a “fork mode” is provided to easily read tuning forks.
When the Fork Mode status on the demo application’s main screen is On, strike a fork
and hold it in front of the radar’s lens to see its calibrated speed readout in the target
window. If the speed stamped on the tuning fork matches the speed displayed, the
radar is seeing targets and reporting them properly.
Fork Mode is automatically turned on for one minute when the Speed Sensor is powered
up. This allows a quick fork test before the mode is automatically turned off and the
radar again processes only directional targets. If a longer fork period is desired, turn on
fork mode using the Fork Enable configuration setting (setting 47). When enabled in this
manner, fork mode stays on for 10 minutes before it automatically turns off again.
