3.2.12 Data output conditions
• In single-run measurement or continuous-run measurement, measured data can be output-
ted for each measurement if ±NG occurs, or at given intervals to the RS-232C/GP-IB
interface, printer, or Mitutoyo Digimatic Output Unit.

3.2.13 Automatic workpiece detection <Diameter detection method, Position detection
method>
• Automatic workpiece detection is performed for continuous-run measurement, where
measurement starts with no specified workpiece present (Err-0), then proceeds to auto-
matic detection of the workpiece, followed by measurement repeated number of times. No
specified workpiece present (Err-5) also refers to the workpiece outside the upper and
lower detection limits.
• Whether automatic workpiece detection is performed is specified in the basic setup mode.
If automatic workpiece detection is specified, the number of scanning times for detection
must be specified from among 1 and 16. Select 16 times if detecting precision workpieces.
If automatic workpiece detection is not specified, no further setting is necessary.
• Automatic workpiece detection setup includes the number of measurement times, invalida-
tion period, upper and lower detection limits. Both the upper and lower detection limits
may not always need to be specified, however, they should be set for safety.
• To exclude the measured data of such as chamfered portion of the workpiece, invalidation
period can be set within the range from 0.001 sec to 9.999 sec.
