Note
How to fully utilize the profile function
• You can check whether or not light is illuminating the measurement target evenly.
If the graph lines are inclined even though the measurement target illuminated as a uniform
color on screen, you can judge that lighting is uneven.
• You can judge the extent of the density difference between the background and desired inspection location.
Example: Defect inspection
You can monitor depressions on the graph lines to the extent of density differences at
certain locations.
