5.4.1 Optical image
With the image detection algorithm the Optical image graph (See Figure 2.2 for
explanation) should look like Figure 5.6, right side. The vertical dotted line indi-
cates the position of the shadow edge. For empty pipe, the optical image looks like
Figure 5.6, left side. The soft key
SLOPE
leads to a graph (Figure 5.7) showing the
slope (or first differential) of the optical image graph in Figure 5.6.
Note: In case there is no signal from the sensor, the image field is crossed over.
