Setting A (Mask) Area - Panasonic MICRO-IMAGECHECKER AX40 User Manual

6.2.5 Setting a (Mask) area

A measured range is called an "area". The area is displayed in green. A function that does not allow the
AX40 execute inspection within a masked part of an area is called a "mask function", and the part in
which inspection is not allowed is called a "mask area". The mask area is displayed in yellow. The shapes
of an area and a mask area include rectangle, circle, polygon (up to 16 peaks), plane scan (rectangle),
line scan (line). The area shapes you can set differ depending on the checker type.
