Introduction and Equipment Precautions

 

Congratulations!  You  now  have  the  world’s  most  advanced  headlamp  aiming 
technology  available  to  the  U.S.  automotive  aftermarket.  The  Vision 

II

  Pro™ 

Image  Processing  Headlamp  Aimer

  provides  factory-precise  analysis  to  the 

automotive aftermarket.  Precision laser positioning, high technology photometric 
analysis  and  computer  quick  calculations  make  the  Vision 

II

  Pro™  the  most 

accurate headlight aiming device available.  

The  versatility  of  the  Vision 

II

  Pro™  system  enables  you  to  aim  nearly  any 

headlamp on any make of vehicle throughout the world. Standard, auxiliary, fog, 
rectangular,  round,  or  aerodynamic  VOL,  VOR,  HIGH,  LOW  headlamps  can  be 
precisely aimed, regardless of size.  

The  precision  accuracy  of  laser  technology  is  used  to  determine  the  vehicle 
centerline  and  optical  center  of  the  headlamps.  Computer-image  processing 
technologies  form  the  basis  for  the  Vision 

II

  Pro™  System.  It  analyzes  and 

displays  the  light  pattern  as  it  would  appear  on  the  roadway  at  twenty-five  feet 
(25’) ahead of the vehicle. Upon positioning the headlamp, a digital translation of 
the  headlight  beam  is  displayed  on  the  screen,  graphically  illustrating  the  ideal 
alignment position in inches or centimeters. While viewing the screen, you adjust 
the  headlamp  adjustment  screws  to  align  the  beam  pattern  cross-hairs  with  the 
visual aim indicators.  

The Vision 

II

 Pro™ will never become obsolete. It will always be on the leading 

edge  of  technology.  The  system  can  be  expanded  when  new  aim  patterns 
develop.  

This  user  manual  should  be  read  in  its  entirety  before  operating  the  Vision 

II

 

Pro™  System.  If  you  have  any  questions,  please  contact  an  American  Aimers 
Representative for further information at 1-877-343-7703.  

FOR  YOUR  SAFETY,  READ  AND  FOLLOW  ALL  CAUTION  AND  WARNING 
LABELS AFFIXED TO YOUR EQUIPMENT.
