5.5. RELATIVE POSITION
The “Setup” section, which displays the coordinate system of the Beamage-3.0 sensor on the right side,
allows the user to select the parameter that will be considered as the origin position (0,0) by the software.
Figure 5-12 Relative Position Tab
By selecting “Centroid” and clicking “Set now”, the user chooses to position the origin at the computed
centroid (center of energy). By selecting “Peak” and clicking “Set now”, the user chooses to position the
origin at the computed energy peak (highest measured value). The option “User define”, allows the user
to manually enter origin position values for both the X and Y axes.
It is also possible to position the origin by simply clicking with the mouse in the display. This can be done
in the Beam Tracking Display, which shows the coordinate system of the Beamage-3.0 sensor (refer to
section 6.4). First, click on the
“Beam Tracking Display” button at the bottom of the display screen to open
the Beam Tracking window. Then, activate the pointer button at the top of the display ,and click
where you want to position the new origin of the coordinate system. Once you have clicked on the desired
point, the coordinate values for both X and Y axes will automatically be set beside
“User define” in the
“Relative Position” tab.
