Abstract

See full text

A LCD display is driven by certain elements to indicate the responses of a geophone to various tests as a waveform. Waveforms are displayed for an impulse tests, wherein a current pulse is applied to the geophone and the response is displayed, and for a tap test, wherein the top of a geophone is tapped and the first break of the resulting displayed waveform indicates the polarity of the geophone connections. Response to a resistance test is provided by a level indicator. The waveform on the display may be examined with reference to a comparitor indicative of a proper response, and the operational or disfunctional condition of the geophone thereby determined.
