Chapter 6 System Setup
Specifying X and Y axis movement direction
Check or clear the Reverse X and Reverse Y boxes
to specify the desired axis movement directions.
Specifying Z-axis movement sensitivity
The Z-axis movement is controlled by clicking and dragging the right mouse
button up or down over the Image in the video window.
Control of the Z-axis is divided into fine and coarse movements. The fine and
coarse movements are expressed in inches/pixel or mm/pixel depending on the
unit of measure currently used by the system.
Fine Z-axis movement continues until a threshold distance in pixels is traversed
across the screen. Once the threshold is reached, further Z-axis movement is
coarse. Releasing the right
mouse button resets the
movement sensitivity back
to fine. The example
shown in this screen is
graphed below.
Enter the desired Fine,
Threshold and Coarse val-
ues into the corresponding data fields.
