Check and calibrate in this order:
3.1.1 Check both sides of X axis.
• If X is within spec, proceed to check both sides of Y.
• If X needs calibration, calibrate X
3.1.2 Check both sides of Y axis.
• If Y is within spec, proceed to final X to Y check
• If Y needs calibration, calibrate Y; proceed to X to Y check
3.1.3 Final X to Y check: compare X, X', Y, Y'
3.2 Calibration Overview
3.2.1 Calibration is electronic, and is accomplished by using the laser
keypad. The optional detector/remote control or optional small remote
may also be used.
3.2.2 If the beam is visible, calibrate using the non-rotating point. If it is too
bright to see the beam, calibrate using the detector while the beam is
rotating. When you're in calibration mode, press the rotation key (7) on
the laser to rotate the beam.
3.2.3 The axis LED should blink slowly when in calibration mode. When the
laser is self-leveling or making an adjustment, the LED will blink
rapidly.
3.2.4 IMPORTANT: When pressing an arrow key to move the beam for
calibration, use short, rapid clicks. Do not hold the key down. One click
will move the beam a very small amount (1/32" at 150' or 1mm at
100m). After pressing the key, the LED will blink rapidly as the laser
reacts. Wait until the LED returns to a slow blink to proceed.
