New Opens a new file for the measuring data.
Open Opens a measuring file with the extensions “.foc” or “.mdf”.
Close Closes the file selected in the tool bar.
Close all Closes all files opened.
Save Saves the current file in foc- or mdf format.
Save as Opens the menu for the storage of the files selected in the tool bar. Only files with the
extensions “.foc” or “.mdf” can be imported safely
Export Exports all current data in protocol format “.xls” and “.pkl”.
Load measurement
preferences Opens a file with measurement settings with the extension “.ptx”.
Save measurement
preferences Opens the menu to save the settings of the last program run. Only files with the
extension “.ptx” can be opened.

data base.
Print Opens the standard print menu.
Print preview Shows the content of the printing order.
Recently opened files Shows the file opened before.
Exit Terminates the program.

Measurement
Environment Here, different system parameters can be entered, e.g.
- Reference value for the laser power
- Focal length
- Wave length
- Remarks
Sensor parameters The following device parameters can be e.g. set here:
- The spatial resolution
- The mechanical movement limits in z-direction
- Selection of one of the measuring devices connected with the bus
- The manual settings of the z-axis
LQM-Adjustment Not relevant for BeamMonitor BM+
Beamfind settings Setting parameter for a beamfind procedure. Relevant for BeamMonitor BM+ only.
CCD info Not relevant for BeamMonitor BM+
CCD settings Not relevant for BeamMonitor BM+
Power measurement Opens the measuring window power measurement.
Single... This menu item enables the start of single measurements, of the monitor mode and
the video mode.
Caustic... Enables the start of a caustic measurement. Not only automatic measurements but
also serial measurements of manually set parameters are possible. The automatic
measurement starts with a beam search and then caries out the entire measuring
procedure independently. Only the z-range that is to be examined as well as the
desired measuring plane have to entered.
Start adjustment mode Starts a special monitor mode optimized for the application of the BeamMonitor BM+
for the alignment of laser resonators.
