The corrective values for the machine bases F1 and F2 of the moveable machine (M) on the horizontal
plane show the horizontal displacement. Positive values tell you, that the bases need to be pushed,
where negative values show that bases need to be pulled.
The corrective values for the machine bases F1 and F2 of the moveable machine (M) on the vertical
plane show the vertical displacement. Positive values express, that the machine bases need to be lifted,
where negative values tell you that they need to be lowered.

Live Alignment
7.1.5.1
Horizontal Live Alignment
To start the horizontal Live Alignment mode, the sensors should be in the 9
or 3 o’clock position. If you
need to rotate the shaft, you have to pause the live mode by pressing
. Turn the shafts to the required
position now and continue the live alignment by pressing
another time. Do not forget to enter the
angle manually, if this option is activated. After a short message, Live Alignment should be enabled for
the required plane (indicated by a blinking checkbox in the plane headline. Loosen the machine bases
now and start the adjustment with the help of the calculated corrective values.
7.1.5.2
Vertical Live Alignment
To start the vertical Live Alignment mode, the sensors should be in the 6
o’clock or 12 o’clock position. If
the shafts need to be rotated, you should proceed as described in the horizontal Live Alignment mode.
Plane 6-12 should now be enabled for the Live Alignment. Loosen the machine bases and align them by
means of the corrective values.
7.1.5.3
Biaxial (Y,X) Live Alignment
The biaxial Live Alignment process does almost take place as the horizontal or vertical alignment. The
only difference is, that the sensors do not need to be in a predefined position. Nevertheless, it is
recommended to place the sensors at an angle of about 45° (45°, 135°, 225°, 315°), to avoid
measurement errors.
Movements of the shafts should be avoided in the course of biaxial alignment!
