can be accomplished by making the speed go to zero thereby freezing the
length counter or by using the Material present signal to freeze length
readings. The length must remain the same for a minimum of 80 ms. In the
Successive Reading mode the software is continually reading the length,
speed and Quality factor from the gauge every User Update period.
Final Length mode uses the TF command in the gauge. The TF command
sets the gauge to output only the final length and average Quality Factor at
the end of each part being measured. The gauge only outputs one data point
per length measurement. The Material present signal determines when the
length measurement starts and stops. The minimum time that Material
Present can be off is 4 ms for the gauge to act on the Material present signal
and output the final length and Quality factor.
The bin size of the histogram is determined by the Hist. Minimum, Hist.
Maximum settings and #Data Bins shown in Length Statistics. The bin size
lumps all length measurements within a bin size into one bin and considers
them at one length. This can be set to minimum of 0.001. The Hist. Minimum
and Hist Maximum set the upper and lower limit of lengths that will be used
in the histogram. Lengths outside these values will be shown on the table on
right side of the screen but not used in the histogram. In addition a Red
number will appear in the upper right and left corner of the graph to indicate
how many length readings are larger then the Hist. Maximum and smaller
then the Hist. Minimum.
The length readings are also displayed in a tabular format on the right hand
side of the display.
Length statistics are shown at the bottom of the screen.
