Enabling and disabling high accuracy scanning
The accuracy of the QC5200 is extremely high even when the probing
techniques of the operator are relaxed or hurried. However, small accu-
racy gains can be obtained by enabling the high accuracy mode. The high
accuracy mode automatically optimizes probe positioning to orient scans
orthogonal to the edge, and then returns points that are averaged from a
series of three rapid probe firings. The extra processing required to reposi-
tion the video probe, fire the probe three times and return average point
locations is minimal, and in most applications enabling the high accuracy
mode is beneficial.
Toggle the high accuracy mode on or off by right-clicking the live video
window, and then clicking Other/
High Accuracy, or by clicking the
High Accuracy VED toolbar but-
ton.
