Blemish Settings:  

The Blemish Settings are user configurable.  

ColorCode, Debug (default is 0), FloodDiff and FloodSize are only to be used when requested by a

 

qualified 

Omron Microscan

 representative.

MaxErrorsBeforeQuit – When a given sector reaches more than the number of errors defined in this field,

 

the LVS-7000 stops reporting the errors. For example, If MaxErrosBeforeQuit=20, the LVS-7000 stops

 

reporting errors after a given sector reaches 20 errors. 

NOTE:

 This value is configurable; however, the

 

value must limited to keep from causing processing overflow.

MaxThumbnailsPerSector limits how many thumbnails are used for a single sector’s errors.

ScrollMax controls the maximum size of a blemish. Value is in inches.

ShowMatrixDieCutControls is used to make the sensitivity controls for Matrix and Die Cut available during

 

setup.

SquareSize is the size of boxes that any given Blemish sector will be cropped into.

TargetDPI is used for Blemish quality. Lower settings help the system to run faster but fewer errors are

 

found. Higher settings slow the system but more errors will be found. It is advised to leave this setting as

 

is unless instructed by a

n

 

Omron Microscan

 representative.

Wander is used to align pixels within the Blemish sector FOREGROUND Only. It will hunt for the best

 

matching pixel values in an array size equal to the WanderX,Y value.
