    Initial Operation Messpeak Sorting The selection of peak/peaks dictates which region in the signal is used for the distance or thickness measurement. Switch to material selection by going to Settings > Data recording. Switch to the chart type FFT. Choose between First peak and Highest peak. Controller IMC5400, IMC5600 Thickness Distance...

The peaks ed starting at the start of the measuring range (for the thinnest are counted starting at the start of the measuring range (short layer) toward the end of the measuring range (for the thickest distance between sensor and target) in the direction of the end layer).
  • Page 16 Initial Operation Range [%] Range [%] Evaluation starts with the highest peak, e.g. 3 out of 4 peaks The number of peaks of the FFT signal that are used for evaluation in distance and thickness measurement are to be determined separately, see Chap. Number of Peaks. In the case of a target consisting of several transparent layers, the material must be assigned for each layer, see Chap.
  • Page 17: Number Of Peaks

    Make sure to count the peaks in the correct manner, see Chap. Messpeak Sorting. The standard systems IMS5400-DSxx, IMS5400-THxx and IMS5600-DSxx evaluate one layer. If no distances need to be determined for a measurement, Micro-Epsilon recommends using an IMS5400MP- THxx.

  • Page 21: Material Selection

    Initial Operation Material Selection The refractive index needs to be corrected in the controller for an exact distance or thickness measurement. Only air may be present between the sensor face and the measuring object (Material Infront); other media such as water or alcohol are not permissible.
