Measuring sequence

During the measuring cycle the
shafts are rotated through 180
degrees. Any relative movement
of the laser beams during this
rotation indicates some sort of
misalignment. The logic circuitry
within the tool will translate this
movement to misalignment
figures and advise on how to
correct it. A circle symbol on the
display will help, indicating the
required position of the measuring
units during each step (fig. 17).
As described earlier (chapter 1.3)
we use the analogy of a clock to
describe the different positions.
