Parameter Description
Nominal Area The expected cross-sectional area under the rulers on the track.
Area Tolerance The tolerance applied to the nominal area.

path. This setting applies to the center point.
In the following, the top and bottom center points (green) are at an acceptable
distance from the blue path. The red center points fail because they are too far from
the path. The track is lighter grey than the surrounding surface.
