- Page 17 Initial Operation In the case of a target consisting of several transparent layers, the material must be assigned for each layer. The mate- rial selection for a thickness measurement starts with the thinnest layer (layer 1) independent of the physical arrange- ment in the measuring object, see Chap.
- Page 18 Initial Operation Number of Peaks Number of peaks of the FFT signal used for evaluation in thickness measurement. The number of peaks can be se- lected in the Settings > Data recording > Number of peaks. This function is possible for the following systems: - IMS5420MP and IMS5420IP67MP: max.

- Page 24 Thickness Measurement, Web Page Display Thickness Measurement, Web Page Display Align the sensor vertically to the target object. Then, move the sensor (or the target) closer, until you more or less reach the working distance for your sensor. Once the object is within the sensor’s measuring range, the Range LED (green or yellow) on the front of the controller will light up.
- Page 25 Thickness Measurement, Web Page Display In the window on the left, the signals can be enabled or disabled both during and after the measurement. Inactive graphs are gray. Click on the check mark to add them. The changes take effect when saving the settings. Use the eye symbols to show and hide the single signals.
- Page 26 Data Output, Interface Selection Data Output, Interface Selection The controller supports - three digital interfaces that can be used in parallel for data output, ƒ Ethernet: enables fast data transfer, but provides no real-time capabilities (packet-based data transfer). Both measurement and FFT data can be transferred.
