If the UseScanSpeedAsBasis registry entry is set to False, and the Display absolute speeds check box on the Part/Machine tab in the Setup Options dialog box (Edit | Preferences | Setup) is cleared, PC-DMIS uses the setting for the MaxSpeed registry entry as the full speed for scanning (100%) when it calculates the scan speed.
If the UseScanSpeedAsBasis registry entry is set to True, PC-DMIS uses the setting for the ScanSpeed registry entry as the full speed for scanning (100%) when it calculates the scan speed.
The ScanSpeed registry entry sets the maximum speed of a scan regardless of how the UseScanSpeedAsBasis registry entry is set.
For example, if MaxSpeed is 500, ScanSpeed is 50, and the Display absolute speeds check box is cleared, the actual scan speed in mm/sec is as follows:
