False colors
Here, a false color presentation of the measured power density distribution is generated.

False colors
The used color scale is shown on the left. For a higher sensitivity, e.g. for the analysis of diffraction figures,
it is possible to switch the used color scale in the menu

.
By means of the slide control on the right hand side of the color scale you can display the sections of differ-
ent ADC values with the corresponding radii.
Apart from the automatic scaling, there are three more types of scaling.
Scale on density
All planes of a caustic measurement are scaled on the maximum measured power density. This is supposed
to help comparing the different planes more easily.
Pixel scale
This scaling is only interesting when it comes to the usage of asymmetric measuring windows. In this case
the axis of the windows are no longer a function of the measuring window size but of the number of pixels
measured.
Window scale
With regard to this function, all measuring windows of a caustic measurement are enlarged to the size of
the maximum measuring window. This function, too, is supposed to help comparing the different measuring
planes of a caustic measurement more easily.
Beam axis
The beam axes can be displayed.
