d) Repeat this to insert all other data points.
To insert a data point before an existing one, select the data point and then
"Insert Value".
To insert a new data point at the end of the list, move the focus to the line after
the last entry and then select "Insert Value".
To delete a data point, select the entry and then "Delete Value".
5. Check the current line configuration in the preview area of the dialog box. If neces-
sary, correct individual data points or add or delete some.
If necessary, shift the entire line vertically or horizontally by selecting the "Shift x" or
"Shift y" button and defining the shift width.
6. Save the new configuration by selecting the "Save" button.
The new transducer line is displayed in the overview and can be activated.
How to move the transducer line vertically or horizontally
A configured transducer line can easily be moved vertically or horizontally. Thus, a new
transducer line can be easily generated based upon an existing transducer line which
has been shifted.
1. In the "Line Config" dialog box, select the transducer line.
2. Select the "Edit" button.
3. In the "Edit Transducer Line" dialog box, select the "Shift x" or "Shift y" button and
define the shift width.
4. Save the shifted data points by selecting the "Save" button.

Basics on Alignment
When you put the instrument into operation for the first time or when strong tempera-
ture changes occur, align the data to a reference source (see
The correction data and characteristics required for the alignment are determined by
the firmware. It compares the results at different settings with the known characteristics
of the high-precision calibration signal source at 64
MHz.
During instrument start, the firmware checks whether the installed hardware is suppor-
ted. If not, an error message is displayed ("Wrong Firmware Version") and you are
asked to update the firmware. Until the firmware version is updated, self-alignment
fails.
