Parameter Description
Reference Regions The algorithm uses reference regions to calculate the Z position of the opening. Reference
regions are relative to the center location of the feature. This option is typically used in cases
where the surface around the opening is not flat.
When the Reference Regions setting is disabled, the tool measures the opening's Z position
using the all data in the measurement region, except for a bounding rectangular region
around the opening.
With one or more reference region, the algorithm calculates the Z positions as the average
values of the data within the regions.
When the user places the reference region manually, all of the data is used, whether the data
is inside or outside the opening. The user should place the reference region carefully.
Tilt Correction Tilt of the target with respect to the alignment plane. Set to Auto-Set to have the tool
automatically detect the target's tilt, or enter the angles manually. Auto-Set requires the
measurement region to cover more areas on the surface plane than other planes.
The results from the Plane X and Y tool can be used for angles X and Y parameters.
