Surface Parameters Menu

1. On the right menu, select the type of surface topography to be used, such as total surface, wavy surface, or roughness surface
2. Select which parameters are to be included in the analysis.
3. If uncertainties need to be included in the calculations, the 'Calculate Uncertainty' must be checked and values for Uncertainties of x, y, and z coordinates have to be entered.
4. Click on the 'Calculate' button to calculate surface parameters.

The results of calculated surface parameters are displayed in a table.


To download analysis data:
1. Click on the floppy disk icon and the Save dialog will display. It will ask where to save a zip file.
2. When the zip file is opened, data files in TXT and SDF data format can be seen.
