Origin: Select this to use the X-axis line of the origin shown in the Tool Origin area. The X, Y, and
Angle fields are set to zero.
X1, Y1, X2, Y2: If the Line Segment is not linked, enter the coordinates in these fields
X, Y, Angle: If the Origin is not linked, enter the coordinates in these fields. The measurement Ori-
gin is offset from the Tool Origin by this amount.
2. Line Tab - Tool Origin:
Line Segment: Setup uses the link source tool’s Tool Origin property. If the link source tool does
NOT have a Tool Origin property (e.g. the Data Instance tool), the Origin is left unchanged.
and the Origin Link button is enabled
Origin: Setup uses the link source tool’s Tool Origin property. This tool’s Tool Origin values are
set to zero and the link button is disabled. If the link source tool does NOT have a Tool Origin
property (e.g. the Data Instance tool), the Origin is left unchanged and the Origin Link button
is enabled.
3. Point Tab - Point: You define the ending measurement point on the Point tab. Manually enter the X
and Y coordinates of the point or click the Link button to link a point.
4. Origin: When you link the Point, Setup completes the Origin location, based on the following order:
4a. If the Point’s link source property
contains "RWC" (it uses Real World Coordinates), the Origin is set
to (0, 0, 0) since Point Two’s location is relative to those coordinates. The Origin Link button is dis-
abled.
4b. If the Point’s link source tool
has a Tool Origin property, the Origin is linked to it. The Origin Link
button is disabled.
4c. If the Point’s link source tool
does NOT have a Tool Origin property (e.g. the Data Instance tool), the
Origin is left unchanged. The Origin Link button is enabled. Click the Link button to link an Origin
for Point Two.
Pass/Fail
1. Train the Scale Factor: The tool can be calibrated so that the distance measured in pixels on the image
relates correctly to the measurement’s real-world units. For example, you run the tool and the Mea-
