Measure with Spectro LFP qb

The Barbieri Spectro LFP qb automatically positions the page under its measurement aperture and moves the page to measure each row of patches. The on-screen image highlights each row as it is measured.

Before you measure pages, be sure that the Spectro LFP qb and your computer are both connected to the same subnet of your local area network. Contact your network administrator if you are unsure.

Connect the Spectro LFP qb to your computer and turn on the Spectro LFP qb.
Calibrate the Spectro LFP qb.
To learn about the Spectro LFP qb, see the documentation that accompanies the instrument.

The Spectro LFP qb is connected to your computer through your local area network rather than through a USB connection. The Spectro LFP qb can be used to measure pages for multiple computers on the network.

When you have successfully measured a page, you can check the measurements if desired.

When you select the Spectro LFP qb as your measurement method, you can set the instrument settings.

You can set the patch size to one of the available sizes: Normal (Default), Medium, and Large. The measurement method is the same for all patches regardless of patch size.
