134 FISCHERSCOPE ® X-RAY
Programming Coordinates for Automatic Measurements (XDLM 237)
17.1 Point & Shoot
Using the Point & Shoot method, you can travel very quickly to the desired measurement location
on the specimen.
Procedure
1. On the video image, position the mouse pointer at the desired measurement location.
2. Press the left mouse button.
The mouse pointer assumes the form of crosshairs and the measuring stage travels until the
clicked measurement point is precisely in the crosshairs.
17.2 Point & Save
Using the Point & Save method, you can travel very quickly to a desired measurement location on
the specimen and save the associated coordinates. This function is not active when programming
an array.
Before you start
►
Open the window XY(Z) Coordinates, ref. Chap. 17.5 on Page 136.
Procedure
1. On the video image, position the mouse pointer at the desired measurement location.
2. Press the center mouse button.
The measuring stage travels until the clicked measurement point is precisely in the crosshairs.
The instrument stores the coordinates automatically into the coordinates list.
17.3 Point & Measure
Using the Point & Measure method, you can travel very quickly to a desired measurement location
on the specimen and immediately make a measurement at this measurement location.
Before you start
►
Ensure that you are in the main WinFTM window. Close the window XY(Z) Coordinates if it is
open (ref. Chap. 17.5 on Page 136).
Procedure
1. On the video image, position the mouse pointer at the desired measurement location.
2. Press the center mouse button.
The measuring stage travels until the clicked measurement point is precisely in the crosshairs.
The instrument will then perform the measurement.
