    1, it is important to properly determine the best measuring distance from the target, to optimize the reading. A field of view of 1 to 1 means that the DX’s viewing area is 1" diam- eter for 1" distance from target. Optimize optical alignment, so that the DX views only the target and does not overlap the measurement area.
