Please note, that x and y
scans are performed by
the stage regardless if the
Scanner button in the
Measurement
tool group
is pressed or not. Z Scans
are performed by the
nosepiece.
Scans will be performed
relative to the actual
position. The actual
position will always be
displayed as the 0
coordinates.
A maximum (or minimum)
in the resulting curve or
plot usually indicates a
region of interest.
•
When the scan has been
finished, the vertical black line
(line plot) or the cross-lines
(frame plot) can be used to
re-position the focus. Just
drag the bar or cross-lines
with the left mouse button
held down to the new
position and release the
mouse. By clicking the
Ok
button the stage or nosepiece
will move to the new position
and the scan window closes.
The
Abort button will be
inactivated for a finished
scan. You can press
Ok or
Abort
during the scan to
interrupt the scan. Ok will
close the window and the old
position is kept.
Abort
does
not close the window, so you
are still able to reposition.
Press
Ok
to leave the scan
window.
Note that the X , Y , XZ and
YZ options are only
displayed, if the Show all
box is checked.
