*1.Defined as 1/e2 (13.5%) of the center optical intensity at the actual measuring center distance (effective value). The beam diameter is sometimes influenced by the ambient conditions of the workpiece, such as leaked light from the main beam.

*2.This is the error in the measured value with respect to an ideal straight line. The standard workpiece is white aluminum ceramics and glass in the regular reflection mode. Linearity may change according to the workpiece.

*3.This is the peak-to-peak displacement conversion value in the displacement output at the measuring center distance in high-precision mode when the number of samples to average is set to 128 and the measuring mode is set to the high-resolution mode.
The standard workpiece is white aluminum ceramics and glass in the regular reflection mode.
