Using the Parameter Sets list on the tab's toolbar, you can change the parameter set to change which type of target parameters you are currently viewing.
Depending on the feature type that you are targeting, the Parameter Set list in the top toolbar displays one or more of the available options: Edge, Filter, Focus, and RGB Mixing.
Edge: This parameter set defines the target edge parameters used for acquiring the edge points on the feature.
Filter: This parameter set defines any filters to be used on the acquired edge points, and their associated parameters. Filters can be used to remove any outliers from the set of edge points, and can also clean the image prior to measurement.
Focus: This parameter set defines whether the target should perform a focus prior to acquiring the edge points, and if so, what the focus parameters are.

RGB Mixing: This parameter set provides Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) color mixing controls to override the default color in the image processing and the Live View.
If all of the values are set to -1 then PC-DMIS uses the internal default value. The values define a ratio. Therefore, values of 0.7, 0.2, and 0.1 would appear as 70% red, 20% green, and 10% blue when used to compute the grayscale.
If you're using a color camera, the image data is converted to a grayscale before the edge processing is done, so the gray scale brightness is computed based on the individual red, green, and blue brightness values. When set to grayscale mode, the Live View also shows the color-weighted image.
