Fig. D-10. Step Tablet dialog box.
The dialog box will indicate whether the displayed form is for the transmissive or
reflective step tablet, depending on whether you are in transmissive or reflective
mode.
Note: In transmissive scanning, the scanner is calibrated against a transmissive step
tablet. In reflective scanning, the scanner is calibrated against a reflective step
tablet, unless the reflective calibration strip is uncalibrated. If the reflective
calibration strip does not have step tablet values associated with it, you can use
the default values in the form.
In the Tablet Serial Number field, you can type in the serial number for the step tablet
values you are entering. (The reflective step tablet will probably not have a serial
number.)
Your calibration strip will have a clear plastic cover. If the quantity offset value for
the clear cover is included in your calibration strip package, you can enter this
number in the Quantity Offset field. Otherwise, use a value of 0.045.
