Specifying video probe animation rate
Video probes are animated to indicate video scan direction and to enhance
visibility. The animation shows dashed lines moving along the probe path in
the direction of the scan.
Animation intervals are entered to increase or decrease the animation rate. Small
intervals result in high rates and smooth animations, but commit more com-
puter resources. Large intervals result in lower rates and animation hesitation,
but commit fewer resources.
Enter the desired animation interval into
the Animate VED... field in milliseconds.
Specifying maximum field of view for worm tool (probe)
The worm probe scans along an edge until the scanning process is complete, or
the scanning is terminated by an error or by an enabled scan-limit boundary.
The scan-limit boundary is shown in red when enabled, and in green when
disabled.
Red boundary line
Scanning stops at scan-limit boundary
Green boundary line
Scanning continues beyond field of view
