7.2 Sample Imaging Setup

The following example assumes that you have determined the following:
Example: To image a feature .020" dia. on an 18" web using a LD3523 Camera.
Satisfying the Nyquist criterion, the effective y sample size
Since the maximum line rate corresponding to the minimum line period from
Table 1 is
such that the web moves 0.010" during the line period.

Note 1.
The calculated exposure time guarantees the effective spatial resolution of 0.010"
at the maximum line period. Reliable imaging will require adjustment of the web
light source and/or camera gain.
