Errors in Dimensional Parameters

If, after a scan, the abbreviation for dimensional appears as >DIM<, an error exists in one or more of the dimensional parameters. If there is an error, use the arrow buttons to review each parameter to identify the problem. If the abbreviation for dimensional appears as Dim, the symbol has no dimensional errors.

Average Bar

The average bar print error (AvgBar) value is the amount of average bar growth or loss in the measured symbol relative to its “X” dimension. This value is compared against traditional print tolerance criteria and rated. If the AvgBar is within these limits, it is rated OK! or pass. If the AvgBar is outside these limits, this test fails.
