End Scan Technique Research

Set System Options, Measure 2 Tab, "Maximum Number of LLP Points in String" to 3
Set Measure Setup - LASER Tab: The LASER defaults to ON for CYLINDERS and END-SCANS.
Set Measure Setup - LASER Tab: Cylinder stripes = 3 to 5
Set Measure Setup - LASER Tab: End-scan stripes = 5
Set Measure Setup - LASER Tab: Split bend stripes = 5
Set Measure Setup = Scan Rates Tab: Set all rates to TIMER for all scan types.
Set Measure Setup = Scan Rates Tab: Set the Scan Rates TIMER is set to 0 for all TIMERS.

Align the scanner with a slight scissor angle across the end as is shown in the image on the right
Attempt to hold the laser motionless when collecting the stripes across the end to increase repeatability.
Consistently place the line across the same area of the tube end from measure to measure.
Press the green button until VTube-LASER is finished scanning all the end stripes.
