How to set a value of less than 0.1 mm for pulse distance during velocity measurement with the TM-3100?

For example, if you want to set the pulse distance to 0.04 mm,
set the PULSE DISTANCE to 4.0 mm,
and set the pulse factor (FACTOR) to 1.00000 x 10E-2 (=1.00000x10-2).

With the TM-3100, the following calculations are performed.
Movement speed (mm/s) = Measurement frequency (Hz) x Pulse distance (mm) x Pulse factor
Movement speed (m/min) = Measurement frequency (Hz) x 60 x Pulse distance (mm) x 0.001 x Pulse factor
