VISION 100 CALIBRATION
8. Rotate laser pointer down vertically 10-12 inches. Laser
dot should intersect line at this point (Fig. 4 / 6).
●
If the laser dot does not intersect with these three points,
adjustment is necessary.
●
These vertical lines can be used in the future for calibration
check or alignment (Fig. 4 / A & B).
Adjustment
There are three Allen screws and four holes located at the
laser mount. Two screw heads are visible at the rear and
one is located under the front lens bezel (Fig. 4 / 6).
Normally the back screws will accomplish the adjustment
but in extreme cases, it may be necessary to remove the
Phillips head screw on the front of the lens bezel and pull
the bezel back far enough to expose the front laser adjust-
ment screw. Be careful to not back the screws out com-
pletely allowing the nuts inside to fall.
Adjustment procedures are dictated by the location of the
screw at the front under the lens bezel.
Adjustment Procedure
●
Position the laser pointer straightforward. If the front screw
is located at the top, adjust the rear top screw to bring
laser dot horizontally to the vertical line.
●
If the front screw is located at the bottom, adjust the rear
bottom screw to bring the laser dot to the vertical line.
This is a rough adjustment.
●
Rotate the laser pointer up as described above and adjust
the opposite rear screw to align the laser dot with the
vertical line. This is a fine adjustment.
●
Rotate the laser pointer downwards and adjust the screw
to align the laser dot with the vertical line.
● Repeat these adjustments until the laser dot tracks
accurately from 10-12 inches above to 10-12 inches below
the straight ahead position.
● This completes the adjustment.
Mast Straightness
While V100 is in front of the vehicle, Place level across the
top front bezel of Aim Head to check horizontal level. If nec-
essary, loosen bolts on the base and adjust mast.
