Straightness Measurements

Note

The program automatically knows whether the Model 8215 or the 

Model 8225 laser heads are being used. 

Straightness Laser Configuration Function Keys 

Change Laser Config

Use the Change Laser Config key to togglethe configuration of the laser heads. 
The display must be set to match the actual location for each of the laser heads 
based on how the machines are to be viewed during the alignment. 

There are four ways to configure the laser fixtures. The first consideration is which 
fixture is to be fixed and which one will be moved. The configuration shown above 
is for the left fixture (Head A in this case) to be fixed (represented by a dashed line/
arrow pointing in the direction of the moved fixture) while the right fixture (Head 
B in this case) is to be moved (represented by position numbers followed by an 
ellipsis). 

Laser Address Selection

Use the Laser Address Selection key to check and set the head and analyzer 
addresses. This option functions exactly as described for a horizontal alignment 
job. Refer to the Laser Address Selection section on page 3-26 for more informa-
tion.

Check Lasers

Use the Check Lasers key to check the operational status of the heads. This option 
functions exactly as described for a horizontal alignment job. Refer to the Check 
Lasers section on page 3-30 for more information.

Note

Both laser heads need to be turned on for this option to function 

properly.
