Layer Settings

You configure layers on the InspectScan page.

Parameters
Name Description

Layer count

Determines the maximum number of layers the sensor should detect. For each layer, a Layer {n} in the Layer parameters section is displayed. For information on the parameter-specific parameters, see Layer-specific parameters.

Layer sorting order

The order in which layer profiles are sorted in the output. One of the following:

  • By Intensity, then top to bottom
  • Top to Bottom
  • By Intensity, then bottom to top
  • Bottom to Top
Layer parameters An expandable section containing the parameters for each layer (see Layer-specific parameters).
Layer-specific parameters
Name Description

Effective refractive index

The effective refractive index of the material.

Intensity filter type

The intensity filter type. Only available if you have enabled Acquire intensity in the Scan mode section (see Scan Modes and Intensity).

One of the following:

  • Average Intensity
  • Signal Detection

To set this to Signal Detection, you must enable Enable per layer intensity in the Advanced section. Otherwise, average intensity is applied on all layers.

Min Thickness

Max Thickness

The minimum and maximum thickness for the layer.
Detect missing layer

When this parameter is enabled, missing points from the first layer are detected and considered as gaps. The sensor uses the value of Maximum gap width to separate layers.

Disable this parameter for maximum performance.

Maximum gap width

Used for connecting points to the first layer. Only available when Detect missing layer is enabled.
