Distance Calibration
Offset
Enter the edge error correction offset value for the current magnification.
The reported position for an edge crossing will be offset by the amount
entered, in either in the direction of “light” or in the direction of “dark”,
depending on the sign of the entered value.
Edge Parameters
Displays the current gain and pot values for the screen and reference
channels as well as the screen offset value. These values are the result of the
most recent optical edge calibration.
There are also two softkey functions available from the Mag setup screen.
•
Use the “Red X” button at softkey 1 to delete the current magnification from the system.
•
Use the “Import Crosscal” button at softkey 2 to import circle measurements for automatic
calculation of the X and Y “Edge to Xhair offsets” for the current magnification. Prior to
executing ensure that there are only 2 circle measurements in the feature list, one measured
with the optical edge probe and one measured with the crosshair.
