B-Scan
Comes standard on the ECHO-7DL and ECHO-7DLW
This option is only available combined with the Datalogger option. Provides a non-encoded (time base) or a cross section (side view) of the part being inspected. The A-scan and B-scan can now be view at the same time. The operator can scroll where the cursor line is after a B-scan is generated.

Bluetooth
Available as an optional upgrade for all ECHO series gages. The bluetooth software option also requires internal hardware modification on the PCB (does not affect other specs, IP rating or require additional power source).
Allows ECHO to export data such as thickness readings or files to another device via internal bluetooth. DataXL mobile can be used to facilitate the transfer of information on IOS and Andriod phones and tablets. DataXL Mobile is coming soon in the Apple store and Google Play Store.

Datalogger
Comes standard with the ECHO 7DL and ECHO 7DLW
The ECHO Series Datalogger stores millions of readings to its removable sd card as linear, 2D, 3D or boiler in alpha numeric or thousands of waveforms (if gage is equipped with waveform option). Thickness values along with the i.d. information and all gage set up parameters are exported to Microsoft excel via the no-charged, included Data XL interface program provided with every Danatronics thickness gage. Our Datalogger also interfaces with Ultrapipe. Please contact Danatronics for more details.

Live Waveform
Comes standard with the ECHO 7W and ECHO 7DLW
The live waveform (A-scan) is used to verify reading stability. With the live waveform the operator can adjust gain, range, rectification and 2 forms of blanking to set the gage to ignore unwanted noise or mode converted echoes.

Oxide Scale
Sold as a separate software option for the ECHO 7W or ECHO 7DLW
When equipped with the oxide scale option and 20mhz delay line transducer, both ECHO 7 and ECHO 8 units with live waveform can measure the oxide scale (0.015"-0.040") and tube thickness calibrated to their independent sound speeds.
