With the thickness measurement type (for measuring a transparent object), a selection
must also be made of the peaks between which the measurement is to be taken. If the
selected peak does not exist then a measurement is not taken. If the same peak is
selected twice in this case, 0 is output as the measured value.
NOTE
The thickness may only be measured with
specular reflection
mounting. This mode is not
available for all devices in the OD5000 series,
see "Setting diffuse or specular reflec‐

Teaching in the zero point
The current distance is taught in as a new zero point (reference point) or reset to the
output value.

NOTE
If the sampling duration is set to the shortest time of 12.5

is reduced.
