Stage navigation function (QS CNC model)
The stage navigation function allows X,Y stage movement with the mouse. It speeds
measurement and shortens part programming time by reducing stage overrun and short run.
For long travel, the user can click on the drawing image in the graphic window; short travel
is accomplished by clicking on the video window.
Step feeding is also possible on the QS model. By setting a desired value and clicking an
arrow (up, down, right, left) the stage will move by the entered value. In addition to the
machine coordinate system, the stage can be moved using the workpiece coordinate system.
The user can measure the workpiece without worrying about its positioning on the table.

Center coordinate
X: 0.000mm,
Y: 0.000mm
Even though the workpiece is not placed
in parallel with the machine coordinate
system, after setting the workpiece
coordinate system, the stage can be
moved along the workpiece coordinate
system.
Stage movement in the
workpiece coordinate system
In addition to the machine coordinate
system, when moving the stage by step
feeding, the workpiece coordinate system is
available. The stage can be moved along the
workpiece coordinate system set.

Current position
Target position
1. Start repeat-mode.
3. As the green cross-hairs
approach the red cross-hairs
the next measurement point
comes into the screen.
2. Move the stage to place the
green cross-hairs on top of
the red cross-hairs.
Click the mouse with "Ctrl" key, Quick
Scope moves to the position clicked.
Click the mouse with "Ctrl" key, the clicked
point will be centered on the display.
Output of measurement results
The measurement results obtained in the
Repeat mode can be output via the CSV
format which is compatible with application
software such as Microsoft Excel®. QSPAK
can help the operator create an inspection
chart.
Repeat measurement navigation (QS-L model)
The Quick Scope QS-L can repeat measurement routines
(measuring commands, illumination settings, zoom lens
magnification, etc.) set in the Learn mode. The distance
from the current position (green cross-hairs at the center)
to the next target point (red cross-hairs) are indicated by
the counter above the screen. When moving to the next
measurement point, all the operator has to do is move the
X,Y table until either the counter reads zero or by laying
the green cross-hairs on top of the red cross-hairs.
