The Measure screen contains data and choice fields for configuring
ND 1200 measurement parameters.
Measure screen
The Measure screen contains configuration fields for:
Specifying forward or backward annotation point probing
Retaining features across power cycles
Specifying absolute or signed distances
Requiring a machine zero upon startup
Specifying a probing targeting zone size for programs that utilize
optical edge detection
Specifying program pauses if tolerance failures are encountered
Specifying printed reports depending on tolerance results
To configure measurement parameters:
U Press MENU/SETUP to display the setup menu and then highlight
the Measure menu item.
U Highlight the Annotation choice field and then press the BACK soft
key to allow the user to probe up to 100 points when measuring a
feature. Press the FORW soft key to complete a feature
measurement automatically when the number of points specified by
the Fwd data fields have been probed. For example, when FORW is
selected and the Fwd Circle value is 3, a circle measurement will be
completed automatically when 3 points have been probed.
U Highlight each of the Fwd feature data fields and enter the number
of probed points required to automatically complete a measurement
for each feature type when forward annotation is used. The
minimum numbers are:
Point 1 probed point
Line 2 probed points
Circle 3 probed points
Select backward or forward annotation Enter the minimum number of points for
forward annotation probing
