Step 4: Reassembly
To reassemble all the parts, it is always recommended to mount the SLM head
properly as the first step. Use standard posts (8-32 / M4 Taps) or a Polaris-K1
Ø1" Kinematic Mirror Mount for mounting, then adjust the height of the head
to make sure that the incident beam illuminates the center of the panel
’s active
area.
Once the SLM head is fixed, adjust the height of the adapter board and main
unit to align the FPC of both the board and panel sides to the height of the
corresponding connectors on the adaptor board.
