5) Repeat steps 3 & 4 until the B-START or B-DEPTH value is correctly
displayed.
6) Press the OK key to set the B-START or B-DEPTH value and return to the
DISP menu, or ESC to cancel entering the B-START or B-DEPTH value.
Note: the adjusted value will appear next to the B-START or B-DEPTH

DIGITS B-SCAN
In the upper left corner of each of the display photos above, is the repeatability
indicator. The repeatability indicator is represented by five vertical bars and
represents how repeatable the measurements are. In regular measurement mode,
the CMX
DL
makes 8 measurements a second. In scan mode, the CMX
DL
makes 200
measurements a second. If the coating mode option is activated, the CMX
DL
makes
3 measurements a second in regular measurement mode and 65 measurements a
second in scan mode. When the CMX
DL
is idle, only the left vertical bar will be
displayed. However, when the CMX
DL
is making a measurement, four or five of the
bars should be displayed on the repeatability indicator. If fewer than four bars are
showing, the CMX
DL
is having difficulty achieving a stable measurement and the
thickness value displayed is potentially unstable.
