Setup - Preferences
Resolution
Use the Resolution selection to choose how numeric
displays are to be read during the alignment program.
Choices are Normal (0.10 degree or tenths of a
degree) or High (0.01 degree or hundredths of a
degree) resolution. Regardless of choice it won’t
effect the accuracy of the aligner, simply the number
of digits after the decimal point and the associated
roundoff.
The selection will effect the way Alignment readings
are viewed. Adjustments using a 0.10 degree
resolution will be easier to obtain than when using
the 0.01 degree setting. Aligning the car to within
hundredths of a degree requires a greater degree
of precision on the technician’s part to obtain exact
readings.

will be displayed such as: caster, camber, SAI,
included angle, thrust angle, etc.

Linear Units

(setback, vehicle dimensions, etc.) will be
displayed.
