Determining the measurement type
This function determines which measurement is used via the respective channel.

Meaning
Distance
Measures the distance between the zero point and a defined peak
(object surface)
Thickness
Measures the distance between two peaks, e.g., a transparent
object with several reflective surfaces (e.g., layers of glass)
Depending on the selected measurement type, it is possible to determine on which
peak or between which peaks the measurement is to be taken.
With the distance measurement type, up to eight peaks can be selected. Peak 1 (P1) is
activated by default.
