On sensors that do not offer energy measurements, this button will be hidden from view.
The energy measurement screen will open:
The controls in the energy screen are similar to the power screen, except that the statistics are not available. In
addition there is a status label just below the Energy value display, as shown below:
Wait for the “READY” status before trying to measure a pulse of laser on the sensor.
If the measurement displays “OVER” try changing to a less sensitive measurement range, or try reducing the energy.
In order to choose the trigger threshold, use the drop down menu to select LOW, MEDIUM or HIGH. The default
threshold is “MEDIUM”. In order to increase or decrease the default threshold by a factor of 3, choose HIGH (least
sensitive triggering) or LOW (most sensitive triggering). In very noisy environments, a HIGH threshold may be
required. When measuring very low energy levels, a LOW threshold may be required.
In order to return to the power measurement mode, press the “Power” button.
In order to set Energy as the default startup mode, press the “Save Startup” button.
