WinFTM File Structure
5.3.1 Dual Function of a Product
A product consists of two parts that function independent of one another:
The parts have the following function:

The product part for the specimen is used to measure the specimens.

The product part for the calibration standard set 1 is used for the calibration or substitute cali-
bration and for the monitoring of the measurement devices.
The two different product parts are used to store, organize and evaluate the respective measure-
ment data separately.
To some degree, the WinFTM software permits differences in the composition between the speci-
men and the calibration standards, both for the substrate material and for the coating(s). The dif-
ferent compositions are defined in the respective Def.MA of the two product parts and can be
evaluated in any desired way using the functions of block evaluation and final evaluation. In this
manner, the measurement data that has been taken at the actual specimen, using the product part
for the specimen, will remain uninfluenced when the calibration standards are re-measured.
The dual function is also implemented in the Def.MA and measurement application files. From the
user’s point of view mainly the dual function of the product file is important.
1. In this context a calibration standard set is a particular data set, which contains the characteristics of the used
calibration standards.
