Number of peaks of the FFT signal used for evaluation in distance and thickness measurement. The number of peaks

This function is possible for the following systems:
- IMS5400-DS19/MP: max. 13 layers or 14 distance peaks
- IMS5400-TH45/MP: max. 5 layers
- IMS5400-TH70/MP: max. 5 layers
- IMS5600-DS19/MP: max. 13 layers or 14 distance peaks
Make sure to count the peaks in the correct manner, see Chap. Messpeak Sorting.
The standard systems IMS5400-DSxx, IMS5400-THxx and IMS5600-DSxx evaluate one layer.
i
If no distances need to be determined for a measurement, Micro-Epsilon recommends using an IMS5400MP-
THxx.
The material selection for a thickness measurement starts with the thinnest layer (layer 1) independent of the physical
arrangement in the measuring object. The material selection for a distance measurement corresponds to the actual
physical arrangement in the measuring object.
