8.1 Measuring the vehicle
As you see from the previous chapter the surface
is very important for good results.
Here are a few tips for successful use of the
instrument.
Four CORRECT measurements are required to
complete the process.
• Selecta‘clean’areathatisundamaged,free
from scratches. Avoid imperfections in the
paint like craters, drips, etc! Also avoid curved
surfaces whenever possible.
• Measureascloseaspossibletotheareabeing
repaired. Also take measurements on both
sides of the area, if possible.
• Turntheinstrument90°aftereach
measurement.
8.2 Rotating during measurements
To optimize search results Automatchic Vision
always averages 4 rotated measurements.
The measurement direction is explained to the
user. Each rotation is shown on the instrument
display and the user is instructed to point the
instrumentinaxeddirectionandrotatethedevice
in that way.
