11.4.2 Curve-Adjustment Options
After a DGS/AVG curve has been calculated on the EPOCH 6LT, you can make
adjustments to that curve during an inspection. These adjustments include gain
adjustments allowing proper defect scanning and code-compliant defect sizing, as
well as reference-reflector adjustments.
11.4.3 Transfer Correction
Transfer correction is an adjustment in the reference gain setting during calibration of
the instrument. It is typically added when the surface conditions of a calibration block
and test piece are different. The coupling conditions on the test surface can often
cause signal loss after calibrating a DGS/AVG curve, which results in inaccurate
comparisons of the test reflectors with the calibrated DGS/AVG curve. The EPOCH
6LT allows you to adjust for this difference by adding transfer correction to the
calibrated base gain after completing the DGS/AVG curve setup.
