If you used the preceding methods and you still cannot obtain 60 percent
beam strength, call your local support person or Agilent Technologies
customer support. Refer to the back of this guide for a list of Agilent
Technologies service and support centers.
Making the Measurement
In this procedure, you make manual measurements as you advance the
machine’s moveable part. The instructions explain how to make
measurements using either the Record button displayed on the screen or
the optional remote control unit. See Chapter 1, “Planning Your
Measurements,” for a description of other triggering methods.
To make the measurement, follow these steps:
1 Move the moveable optic so it is at the initial position.
2 On the Set Up Laser: STRAIGHTNESS screen, select Set Up Meas.
The Set Up Measurement: STRAIGHTNESS screen is displayed
(Figure 5-17).
