                      | Using the System 
 With an Internet connection and a web browser, you can access the Internet-based Surface Metrology Algorithm Testing System. After login to the system, you can  perform surface finish analysis and download reference data with calculated surface parameters  from the database. On the main page of the homepage, you can view four options: Reference Software for 2D Surface Analysis, 2D Virtual SRM Database, Reference Software for 3D Surface Analysis, and 3D Virtual SRM Database. By clicking on  Reference Software for 2D Surface Analysis 
 or 2D Virtual SRM Database, you can access the 2D database and use 2D analysis tools. On the other hand, you can access 3D analysis tools and 3D Virtual SRM Database by clicking on  Reference Software for 3D Surface Analysis and 3D Virtual SRM Database. After you choose one of these options, 
						you can view more help screens on the Help menu at the upper right corner of the screen.
