The QC100 is capable of great accuracy and precision and may
surpass the measurement-accuracy capability of the human op-
erator. The system is also capable of displaying higher resolution
and more significant figures than is often needed. These facts
may be important in your interpretation and use of the measure-
ment data provided by the system.
Metronics, Incorporated assumes that all QC100 systems will be
configured and setup for the end-user by dealer or OEM represen-
tatives. This setup includes calibration according to the user’s
optical comparator or similar device, and configuration of error
compensation if necessary.
When the end-user installs a new comparator, it will probably be
necessary to perform configuration and setup again. In that case,
technically qualified supervisory personnel can refer to Chapter 4:
System Setup, or can contact their dealer representatives for assis-
tance.
