PRECAUTIONS
1. Safety Precautions
The Measuring Unit connected to the Display Unit uses a very low power laser.
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
1) An applicable laser product class of the IEC standard: a Class 2 laser product uses a
visible laser (maximum power: 1.3 mW for scanning; laser device: semiconductor laser;
wavelength: 650 nm).
2) Do not look directly into the laser beam. (Even if it seems that no light is being emitted
from the emission window, do not look into it.)
3) If measuring flat objects with mirror finishes, avoid looking at the reflection on the
surface.
4) Close the beam shutter when the instrument is not in use.
5) Do not remove the laser class identification labels attached to the Measuring Unit.
6) Before using this unit, carefully read the “Measuring Unit Specifications” and “Precautions on Use of Laser” sections provided in the manual supplied with the Measuring
Unit.
2. Before making the connection between the Measuring Unit and the Display Unit, turn off the
power. If an optional device is to be connected to this system, make sure that the optional
device is also turned off.
3. Firmly tighten the screws of the cable connectors and interfaces to ensure shielding.
4. Do not touch the terminals of the connectors, otherwise contact may be poor.
5. Positively ground the Display Unit.
6. An error display may appear during operation. However, it may not always indicate a fault. If
an error display appears, consult the “Maintenance and Inspection” section.
7. Unplug the power cord when a system failure is encountered.
Do not open the covers provided on the emission unit and reception unit.

INSTALLING CONDITIONS
The Mitutoyo Laser Scan Micrometer LSM-6100 series is both a precision optical instrument
and a precision electronic instrument, and this unit is the instrument suitable for indoor use as
well. Therefore, it must be carefully installed and the following conditions must be taken into
consideration to attain the highest possible accuracy.
1. Vibration
Install this unit if possible in a place where it will not be subject to vibration. If this unit is
used for a long period of time in an environment where there are significant vibrations, the
precision parts in this unit may be affected, resulting in the deterioration of measuring
accuracy.
If this unit has to be used in an environment where vibration is significant, measures such as
the laying of a vibration damping rubber pad under the unit must be applied to reduce the
effect of vibration.
2. Dust
Dust and airborne particles at the installation site adversely affect optical parts including the
protective glass and electronic parts of the Measuring Unit. Place this unit in a place with as
little dust and as few airborne particles as possible.
3. Direct sunlight
If this unit is subjected to direct sunlight, the heat may deform this unit and affect the
measuring accuracy.
4. Draft from air-conditioning equipment
5. Ambient temperature and humidity
WARRANTY
If this unit must be placed by a window where it will be subjected to direct sunlight, protect
the unit by shading it.
If the measuring area is subject to such as warm or cold draft from any air-conditioning
equipment, the laser beam may be artificially refracted due to the unevenness of ambient air
concentration, affecting the measurement accuracy.
If this is the case, block the draft in the mid-way to the measuring area by such as a curtain, etc.
This unit must be operated in an environment where the temperature is between 0 and 40˚C
and the humidity is between 35 and 85% RH. Avoid installing this unit where there is
significant temperature or humidity change.
Significant temperature and humidity changes may reduce measuring accuracy.
In the event that the Mitutoyo Laser Scan Micrometer (LSM) should prove defective in
workmanship or material, within one year from the date of original purchase for use, it will
be repaired or replaced, at our option, free of charge upon its prepaid return to us.
If the unit fails or is damaged because of the following causes it will be subject to a repair
change, even if it is still under warranty.
iv
1. Failure or damage due to inappropriate handling or unauthorized modification.
2. Failure or damage due to transport, droppage, or relocation of the machine after
purchase.
3. Failure or damage due to fire, salt, gas, abnormal voltage, or natural catastrophe.
This warranty is effective only where the machine is properly installed and operated following this manual.

1.1 Outline
This system is an accurate, non-contact measurement system capable of measuring workpiece
dimensions at a high speed using a highly directional scanning laser beam.
This non-contact optical measuring system is capable of measuring workpieces which are
difficult to measure with conventional measuring instruments. It performs simple and
accurate measurement of brittle or elastic objects, objects at high temperature, objects which
must be kept clean, and soft objects which may be deformed and suffer dimensional changes
under the measuring forces used.

1. If wiring the I/O analog terminal and Power input terminal, do not directly touch the
output terminals of the terminal block by hand, which has static charges, because
the internal circuit may be damaged by static discharge.
If your hands are charged, discharge the static energy by touching the metallic
surface of the Display Unit in advance. In addition, unplug the power cable from
the outlet before commencing wiring.
2. After wiring has been completed, close the protective cover.
3. Do not touch the input terminals on the terminal block during operation, otherwise
an operation error may result.

OPERATIONS
This Display Unit is provided with many useful functions that can be
customized according to the user's needs.
This chapter describes these functions and key operations.
3.1 Outline of the Operation Modes
3.1.1 Measurement Principle
In order for the user to understand the measurement principle of the LSM, the following
paragraphs describe about the system block diagram, segments (measurement positions) and
measurement interval (measurement time).
3.1.1.1 Overview
Unlike light emitted from natural sources, a laser provides extremely fine, rectilinear beams
which do not diffuse (coherent light beams).
Using the properties of the laser beam, the Mitutoyo Laser Scan Micrometer (LSM) moves a
scanning laser beam over the workpiece and determines its dimensions by measuring the
duration in which the beam is obstructed by the workpiece.

The configuration of the system is shown in the above block diagram. A laser beam emitted
from the laser oscillator is directed at the polygon mirror which rotates at high speed and is
synchronized by clock pulses. The laser beam that is reflected by the polygon mirror is then
collimated by the collimator lens towards the workpiece. As the polygon mirror rotates, this
horizontal beam scans the workpiece and the beam not obstructed by the workpiece will
reach the photoelectric element through the condenser lens and induce an output voltage in
the photoelectric element. The output voltage will change according to the duration over
which the laser beam is obstructed. Counting pulses generated during that period are used to
determine the dimension of the obstructed portion. This data is sent to the CPU for processing and the dimensions are displayed digitally.
Consequently, either the dimensions of the workpiece (shadowed areas) or workpiece
clearances (highlighted areas) can be determined by specifying the segments to be measured.
TIP In the system block diagram described in the previous page, the laser beam passed
through the collimator lens is made parallel and, at the same time, stopped down so
that the beam diameter is minimized at the measurement position.

No. 99MBC095A
3.1.1.2 Setting the segment
Set the objective portion of a workpiece to be measured.
The highlighted and shaded portions created when the laser scans over the workpiece are
controlled with each assigned number. In the basic setup a selection must be made from one
of two cases: case where there are 1 to 4 highlighted and shaded sections, and case where
there are 1 to 127 similar sections. In the former case the portions are controlled through the
segment number, and are simply called segments. In the latter case the portions are controlled
by the edge number (edge number is between 1 and 255) and called edges. Edge numbers
equal to or greater than 256 are not available.

3.1.1.3 Measurement interval (measurement time)
A measurement interval (measurement time) varies depending on the averaging method and
the number of scans selected for the measurement data.
There are two types of averaging method: the arithmetical average and the moving average.
Select the one best suited for the user’s purpose.
1) Arithmetical average
• If a moving workpiece is measured, the OD of the workpiece is determined by averaging
the measured data taken from each section (a: first measurement, b: second measurement,
.... n: nth measurement) of the workpiece the specified number of averaging times, as
shown below.
2) Moving average
first measurement
second measurement
ban
Moving workpiece
. . .
nth measurement
Moving direction
• One of the following number of averaging times can be selected: 1, 2, 4, 8, ....1024, 2048.
(If extra fine wire measurement is specified in the basic setup, the number of averaging
times can be selected from between 16 and 2048.)
• This is suitable for measuring a still object or the run-out of rollers, etc.
In the moving average method, a measurement interval identical to that in the arithmetical
average is divided into finer sections such as a1 (1st measurement), a2 (2nd measurement), -
- - , an (nth measurement). Each measurement is performed almost in parallel. If, for ex-
ample, the number of averaging times is set to 512, the first measurement requires the
amount of time that corresponds to 512 scans. However, for the second measurement onward,
only the time for 16 scannings is required. With respect to a workpiece with a changing OD,
this method provides data with smooth variation because of the many pieces of data, and also
quickly detects the trend of workpiece OD variation.

3.1.2.6 Measurement mode
This mode can be divided into the following operational states:
1) Measurement in the ready state
• This is the measurement mode that is entered immediately after the power is turned on
or if another measurement mode is aborted by pressing the
signal from the I/O interface or the “CL” command from the RS-232C/GP-IB interface).
• It is used to establish setups for calibration and available functions, which are not part
of the basic setup items, or to enter another measurement mode including single-run
measurement.
• Usually GO/NG judgment and analog output will not take place for measurement in the
ready state, however, these specifications can be made in the basic setup mode.
• Measurements in the ready state are unavailable for statistical processing.
2) Single-run measurement
• If the

returned to.
• The measurements are available for statistical processing.
4) Continuous measurement with a term specification
• This will take place where RUN input from the I/O interface has been assigned so as to
start a term-specified continuous-run measurement in the basic setup.
• Repeatedly performs single-run measurement while RUN signal input continues, which
is basically the same as the continuous-run measurement. Therefore, hereafter, continuous-run measurement includes the ones with a term specification.
• The measurements are available for statistical processing.

key is pressed again (or RUN is inputted via the I/O
interface or the “STOP” command is inputted via the RS-232C/GP-IB interface). From
the measured data the calculation items (mean, maximum value, minimum value, and
range) that have been set for the sample measurement will be calculated and the
resulting data will be automatically subject to GO/NG judgment and analog output. In
addition, the measured data will be outputted for the RS-232C/GP-IB interface,
Digimatic Output Unit, and printer. The measured data will be held on the display.
• The measured data are available for statistical processing.
• This is suitable for run-out measurement and cylindricity measurement.
6) Sample measurement
• A measurement where the number of samples is set to “2~999” is called a “sample
measurement”.
• In practice this will take place as a single-run measurement or a continuous-run measurement (with a term specification).
From the measured data the calculation items (mean, maximum value, minimum value,
and range) that have been set for the sample measurement will be calculated and the
resulting data will be automatically subject to GO/NG judgment and analog output. In
addition, the measured data will be outputted for the RS-232C/GP-IB interface,
Digimatic Output Unit, and printer.
• The measured data are available for statistical processing.
• This is suitable for run-out measurement and cylindricity measurement.
7) Statistical processing
• Measured data from single-run and continuous-run measurements can be statistically
processed (i.e. the number of measurement times, standard deviation, maximum value,
minimum value, mean, and range are calculated).
These statistical processing results can be outputted for the display, printer (statistical
memory for all programs will be cleared after printout), and RS-232C/GP-IB interface.
• Press the
