Measurement point
number

Selected from the measurement points set according to the measurement point setup table. This is
set as a measurement point dedicated to BIN sorting, separately from the selection of the
measurement point on the display (single point measurement display or list measurement display)
used to indicate the measurement value.

Measurement
parameter

As with the setting of the measurement point, set as a measurement parameter dedicated to BIN
sorting, separately from the selection of the measurement parameter on the display (single point
measurement display or list measurement display) used to indicate the measurement value.

Limit mode

The mode of selecting the format for inputting limit values (upper limit value and lower limit value)
for each BIN. This mode is selected from three options: absolute mode (ABS: setting the limit value
as an absolute value), percentage mode (PCNT: setting the limit value as a percentage of the
reference value), and deviation mode (DEV: setting the limit value as a difference from the
reference value).

Reference value

The reference value used when percentage mode or deviation mode is selected as the limit mode.

Bin ON/OFF

Allows the BIN to be turned on (active) and off (inactive). When turned off, the relevant BIN is
inactive (the BIN is regarded as non-existent).

Upper limit value

An upper limit value to determine the range of a BIN. The upper limit value must be equal to or
greater than the lower limit value.

Lower limit value

A lower limit value to determine the range of a BIN. The lower limit value must be equal to or less
than the upper limit value.

BIN range mode

The mode of setting the BIN range according to the limit values (upper limit value and lower limit
value). This mode is selected from three options: In (BIN range at minimum equal to the lower limit
value and at maximum equal to the upper limit value or any range within these values), Out (BIN
range at maximum equal to or less than the lower limit value or at minimum equal to or greater than
the upper limit value), and Off (limit values are irrelevant and entire range is set as BIN range).
