Purpose: How to use AutoSearch Standard Feature in Essentials 2.0
Applies to: ColorFlex L2 Essentials Version 2025.2 and above.
The Autosearch Standard feature automatically identifies any Workspace with passing tolerances each time a measurement is taken.
To enable and use Autosearch Standard mode:
- Enable Autosearch Standard:
- Go to SYSTEM MENU → INSTRUMENT SETTINGS → AUTOSEARCH STANDARD.
- Check "AutoSearch Standard Enabled" and configure the standardization mode and measurement options.
Note: Once enabled, the measurement options (configuration and prompt settings) set here will override those in Workspace settings.

- Select Workspaces for Autosearch:
- Open EDIT WORKSPACE → MEASUREMENT OPTIONS for each Workspace you want to include.
- Check "INCLUDE IN AUTOSEARCH STANDARD" to add it to the Autosearch process.
Note: Only WorkSpaces with Physical, Numeric, or Hitch standards will be included in AutoSearch. Your WorkSpace must also have at least one tolerance applied. If you want to exclude a WorkSpace from AutoSearch, you can always exclude it in the WorkSpace settings page for that WorkSpace.
- Take a Measurement:
- The green action button will update to "AutoSearch."
- Place the sample and tap the MEASURE action button.
- Essentials will search the configured Workspaces, listing those with the same standardization mode as the current measurement and tolerances that pass.
- If multiple Workspaces are listed, select one to save.
- If no WorkSpace Standard Pass for this sample, you will still be able to save the sample to the "No Match" Workspace for later review.
