Logging, Print, Write protect – SIGMA LBA-708 User Manual
Page 67: Energy of beam
3.2.5.1 Logging
This switch will launch you into the Data & Results Logging dialog box.
3.2.5.2 Print
This switch will cause the selected print options to be printed on your configured printer. You
will not get a chance to reconfigure your printer or print setup item when you click this tool, so
be sure that you have set your options up in File, Print Setup... before you click here.
3.2.5.3 Write
Protect
This tool can be used to write protect any frame in the frame buffer. Before clicking on this tool,
be sure that the frame number that you want to write protect is indicated in the frame counter.
The frame counter
is located in the lower right corner of the main window.
When a frame has been write protected, its location in the frame buffer can not be overwritten.
When new data is flowing into the frame buffer, write protected locations will be skipped.
To un-write-protect a location, bring the frame number up again and note that the write protect
button is still in the depressed position; click the tool a second time. This tool’s button will show
in the un-depressed state to indicate that the frame is no longer write-protected. Therefore, the
only way to determine which frames are write-protected is to cycle through the frames and
simultaneously view the up/down state of the write-protect button.
Caution: If you change the frame buffer resolution, all write protected frames and their contents will be deleted.
3.2.6
Computation... Energy calibration select results items
The Computations dialog box is where you select the types of numerical results that you want to
have calculated and displayed. You can also calibrate the beam energy here.
Note: The term energy, shown in
Italic
, will be used to represent both Energy and Power.
3.2.6.1 Energy of Beam
The Energy of Beam edit control item lets you calibrate the LBA to the
energy
of your laser.
You must measure the
energy
of your beam using an external measuring device, then enter the
energy
value here. Next select the appropriate units in the
Energy
Units item. The value
entered must be the total
energy
of the frame currently displayed. For accurate results, the
beam must be completely contained inside the current Hardware Zoom/Pan window, and an
Ultracal! operation should be performed prior to collecting the frame used for
energy
calibration.
