Make sure to set the battery charger current setting (110 or 220 V AC) for
the appropriate voltage in your area immediately when umpacking the
instruments.
If a swift automatic multi-electrode system was included in the order the

ABOUT THIS MANUAL
This manual covers the MiniSting and the Swift automatic multi-electrode
system.
This manual uses the following conventions:
M6: Go to menu 6, by pressing the number 6-key
M7/F1: Go to menu 7, by pressing the number 7-key and then press the F1
key
RESISTIVITY MODE
In the resistivity mode, for the each measurement, the instruments injects a
current, reverses polarity and injects the current and then reverse polarity
back to original and injects the current again. The time for this cycle can be
selected from four different settings: 1.2 sec, 3.6 sec, 7.2 sec or 14.4 sec.
the default setting is 3.6 seconds.
Above method has been used in the sting instrument and has proved to be
very effective for resistivity measurements. If only resistivity data is
required, an advantage of this method is that it is faster than if the
resistivity/IP option is selected.
Resistivity/IP mode
When measuring resistivity/IP the current injection pattern is different.
The measurement cycle is: one period of current + ON, one period of
current OFF during which IP is measured, one period of current - ON
