Your Own Detector. To place your own detector, click on the Own Detector button and then click in the Detector Region.

To set the detector's senstivity to light of different colors, depress the Select button. Then click on the Open Detector Graph button. Position the cursor inside the blue bar at the desired value of blue sensitvity. The cursor should take the form of a hand (Figure 1). Click once. The bar should fill up to the sensitivity level you chose (Figure 2).

The method described above is the simplest way to set the light sensitivity level. You can also set the value using a click-and-drag method. Move the cursor to the zero sensitivity line below the green bar. Tweek its position until it takes the shape of a double-headed arrow (Figure 3). Then click-and-drag the cursor upward to the desired value of green light sensitivity (Figure 4).

To show the bars for Infrared and Ultraviolet light sensitivity, open the background properties and check the box show non-visible light.

In the detector's Properties Box, under sensitivity, you can choose to fix the sensitvity graph so that you can no longer adjust the sensitivity settings, or you can check change sensitivity graph, the default setting, to enable the user to modify sensitivity. If you check show the results in color vision, the view obtained by the Detector Scope will be in color rather than grayscale.

You can use the Paste button to replace the default image for the detector. The image you choose must first be placed on the CIPS Java Clipboard by the snapshot tool or from the Image Palette.
