Scanner Cali
A tube-shaped piezoelectric scanner is used in ultra-high vacuum SPM. Generally, the
piezoelectric element of such a type shows a nonlinear dependence on displacement
against voltage in scanning as shown below

Enable Compensation
When this check box is checked, the distortion compensation to the XY scanner will
function. However, even if this is not checked, calibration of the scanning range
will work.

Changing Compensation Parameter
Only a user with administrator privilege can change the compensation parameter.
A floppy disk, which has recorded the calibration data for each scanner, is attached
to the instrument at its shipment from the factory. You can read the calibration data
from the floppy disk by clicking on the Load Setting button.
