right with your fingers while the camera rests
flush on top of the M2 Housing. The objective
is to get identical spacing on either side of the
Achromatic Lens from the edges of the M2
Housing, as shown in the illustration on the
right.
Keeping the Camera and Achromatic Lens
flush against the M2 Housing, resting on it,
ensures that the rods and the M2 remain
perpendicular to the camera and are not
askew.

a. Turn camera auto iris ON.
b. Move camera zoom to its widest
setting.
c. Make sure the cap is removed from the
front of the M2 Housing.
d. Point the M2 and camera at a light area
on the floor.
The dark object in the lower center of the
LCD is the M2 motor. The dark shadows
in the upper corners of the LCD is the M2
Housing and the barrels of the various
optical elements.
The objective is to move the base support
left and right to balance the shadows.
