6.11.2 Adjusting settings in the quick access menu

With the quick access menu, you can adjust the following settings:
Coordinate system used Automatic generation of a coordinate system Selection of magnification Unit for linear values (Millimeters or Inch) Unit for angular values (Radian, Decimal degrees or Deg-Min-Sec) Type of coordinate system (Cartesian or Polar) Type of measuring point acquisition (Auto enter) Timeout for automatic measuring point acquisition (Auto enter timeout in ms) Display of contrast bar Orientation of contrast bar (Horizontal or Vertical)
Selecting the coordinate system
Depending on the measuring task, you can set the coordinate system used in the Inspector's quick access menu. As the standard value, the coordinate system of the measuring plate with the designation World is used. You can define a new coordinate system by defining a new zero point; this can be done automatically with the option Create coordinate system automatically.

Setting the magnification
If an optical sensor is active, you can take the optical magnification of the measured object (e.g. due to camera optics) into account. To do this, select the magnification that corresponds to the camera optics or OED optics in the quick access menu. The number of available magnification levels depends on the configuration of the measuring machine.
The optical magnification must match the magnification that is set in the product.
When measuring with an OED sensor/VED sensor: To ensure that the live image is focused in the workspace, adjust the working distance between the measured object and the camera, if required.
Tap the Quick access menu in the Inspector Select the desired magnification so that it corresponds to the
optics If required, adjust the respective magnification and the focus
of the optics Tap Close to close the quick access menu The selected magnification is displayed in the quick access
menu
When measuring with a VED sensor: If the selected magnification has not yet been set, the pixel size of the sensor must be determined in the Settings menu.

Setting the units of measure
Before you start measuring, you need to set the desired units of measure in the Inspector's quick access menu.

Setting automatic measuring point acquisition
You can acquire measuring points automatically or manually one at a time. The automatic acquisition (auto enter) function automatically enters the measuring points as soon as the measuring tool has remained at a standstill above the measuring point for a short period of time. You can activate or deactivate this function, and set the standstill time ("timeout").
Tap the Quick access menu in the Inspector Activate or deactivate Auto enter When Auto enter is active, a red dot is shown in the Enter
button Set the Auto enter timeout in ms (150 ms to 10 000 ms) As soon as the measuring tool has remained at a standstill
above a measuring point for longer than the selected period of time, the measuring tool automatically enters one or more measuring points
