The Step Detection feature detects and measures multiple steps in a single scan.

The 2D Analysis displays a contour plot and X and Y profile plots. The 2D profiles correspond to the cursor positions on the contour plot. You can view different profiles in the X and Y directions by moving the cursors on the contour plot.

The 3D Mapping function allows the surface profiler users to easily measure, analyze, and view surface contour data in three dimensions (X, Y, and Z), instead ofthe two dimensions (X and Z) that standard products provide.
