ISO 5436的本部分定义了用于验证测量仪器软件的F1和F2型软件测量标准（标准具）。它还定义了F1型软件测量标准的文件格式，用于校准使用ISO 3274中定义的轮廓法测量表面纹理的仪器。 注1:在ISO 5436的本部分中，术语“软测量”用作“F1型软件测量标准”的替代品。 前注2“测量 标准品”被称为“校准样品”。 注3 ISO 3274仅适用于具有独立参考基准的仪器。

This part of ISO 5436 defines Type F1 and Type F2 software measurement standards (etalons) for verifying the software of measuring instruments. It also defines the file format of Type F1 software measurement standards for the calibration of instruments used for measuring the surface texture by the profile method defined in ISO 3274. NOTE 1 Throughout this part of ISO 5436, the term "softgauge" is used as a substitute for "software measurement standard Type F1". NOTE 2 Formerly, "measurement standards" were referred to as "calibration specimens". NOTE 3 ISO 3274 only refers to instruments with independent reference datums.
