The workspace is divided into several panes.
1. Image Pane Parameters—Includes zoom; x, y, z coordinates; image color; view selection (Amplitude, Z(mm), Points,
Surface). The options vary depending on the selected view. See
2. Image pane—Displays the current image captured by the sensor and includes the buttons:
•
Load Image
—Loads a previously saved file for viewing while disconnected from the sensor
•
Save Image
—Save file as a .t3f
•
Trigger
—Manually triggers the sensor when Trigger mode is set to
External
or
Software
