Notes on Speed Measurements Care must be taken to ensure that the mark is providing a 1:1 measurement. Check that there is only one mark and not two, four, or more stationary marks on the object under test. instrument will display double, triple, or quadruple the actual speed. A useful method of avoiding harmonic measurements is to adjust the FINE/COARSE knobs until two images (marks) appear and then lower the flash rate (via COARSE/FINE knobs) until a single, stationary image appears.
