Single measurement (menu
Measurement > Single
)
This menu item is used for conducting single measurements. Settings for the measuring window position
can be entered manually or automatically. The x- and y-axis measuring range of 2 mm x 2 mm at the device
is much greater than the largest measuring window. It allows you to do a beam search manually or using the
Scan
function.
When a
Scan
is triggered, the HP-MSM-HB automatically tests the measuring range. When a point of maxi-
mum intensity is detected, the HP-MSM-HB automatically zooms to this point and adjusts the measuring
window size. When the device has no x- or y-axis, the beam search function can be done automatically with
item
Find beam
.
The system only searches the area of the set-up window at the selected z-position. Afterwards, the
Beam
Search
window appears. If the beam search is successful, a measurement window of appropriate size and
position is displayed in the test panel of the “Single Measurement” window. The beam can then be recorded
using the
Measure
button. The size of the measurement window depends on the magnification of the objec-
tive. Influencing factors are objective, wavelengths, and operating mode (standard, beam path extension,
and calibration mode).

Measurement settings
During a manual beam search, the user can set the position and size of the measuring window within the
mechanical limits himself. The selection is found in a pop-up menu, where you enter an x value for quadratic
and/or x and y values for a rectangular measuring window. The position of the measuring window can be
changed by clicking and dragging the frame using the mouse. The position of the window in the z-direction
(height) can be changed using the z-sliding bar or by entering numerical values. The
Zoom
function allows a
detail magnification of the measuring range.
A measurement is started with the
Start
button. The
Monitor
button starts periodic measurements based on
current settings. The repetition rate depends on the spatial resolution and type of communications between
the PC and the HP-MSM-HB.
