Mirror Alignment Procedure
The mirror alignment procedure goal is to rst align the visible red beam with the invisible CO2 laser
beam then use the red beam as the primary indicator for alignment. The idea is that when the laser
is not aligned, you will have two black dots from the test res in the top and bottom positions. The
red laser pointer is aligned with the invisible laser pointer to give you immediate feedback on the
mirror, the black dots will be exactly on top and this axis is aligned. The goal is to have the two black
dots overlap exactly. It is not necessary that the dots be in the center of the mirror but they should be
somewhere on the mirror.
