WHAT AFFECTS ACCURACYl
INTRODUCTION
This User's Guide section provides instructions for meas uring a velocity alonij the Laser beam.
Keep in
mind that a Ve locity measurement is made by meas uring the cha ng e in position of one of
the Opti cs while the other Optic is held stationary. See Appendix A for <1 desc ription of the
principles
on which this measurement is based.
To make a Ve locity mea surement, begin as if you were making a Distance measurement. Most
instructions for the Velocity measurement are identic al to those for a Distance measurement.
Values for s
et - up keys will be differ ent. and, of course, y ou'll have to push the VELOCITY key
instead
of the DI STANCE key.
OPERATING SPECIFICATIONS
Accuracy: ±O.1 9{ , of displayed value
Resolulion: Metr ic unit s: 0.1 mm / min
En g li sh unit s: 0. 01 in ch/ min
Range (Travel of Optics): Same as for a Distance Measurement; see Section 6
Maximum Velocity: ± 18000 mm/ min
(± 720 inc hes / min . 60 feet/ min)
HARDWARE REQUIRED
In addi ti on to the hardware required for any mea surement using the La ser Mea s urement Sy s tem
( see Fi S lire 4-1 ), an y Velocity mea surement requires the sam e hardware as a Distance meas ure -
ment, as shown in Fi g ur e 6-1.
