In the upper left corner of each of the display photos above, is the repeatability indicator. The repeatability indicator is represented by five vertical bars and represents how repeatable the measurements are. In regular measurement mode, the CMX makes 8 measurements a second. In scan mode, the CMX makes 200 measurements a second. If the coating mode option is activated, the CMX makes 3 measurements a second in regular measurement mode and 65 measurements a second in scan mode. When the CMX is idle, only the left vertical bar will be displayed. However, when the CMX is making a measurement, four or five of the bars should be displayed on the repeatability indicator. If fewer than four bars are showing, the CMX is having difficulty achieving a stable measurement and the thickness value displayed is potentially unstable.
