To level the cabinet, place a bubble on the top
surface in the right-to-left and front-to-back
directions. Adjust the height of the feet until the
top surface is horizontal. To adjust the height of
each foot, first turn the lock-nut counterclockwise
to its lowest position. Then use a crescent
wrench to rotate the bolt clockwise to achieve the
desired corner height. Assess the force required
to rotate each foot to ensure that each foot bears
about the same weight. When done, rotate the
lock-nut clockwise to prevent the bolt from further
rotation.
Repeat the process with the metrology unit after
it has been placed on the cabinet stand. Again
ensure that unit is level and that each foot bears
about the same weight.
4.5 Retainer Removal
Models HDV300 and HDV400 use two steel
stage locks to prevent motion of the stage
during shipment. Remove these retainers
once the equipment has been placed in its
final position. Also remove any tape and
packing materials that may have been added
to protect the equipment during shipment.
4.6 Electrical Connection
Models HDV300 and HDV400 are shipped by
Starrett fully assembled, electrically intercon-
nected, and ready to run following the removal
of retainers and packing materials. Simply plug
in the system and turn on the system's two power switches (in the back and on the side).
Starrett vision metrology systems and optical comparators are factory set for 115V or 230V AC
power, depending on the destination country. Contact Starrett if you ever need to move a system
to a country with different AC power.
WARNING:
Make sure that the power plug to which the system is connected is a
properly rated and grounded receptacle. Do not energize the power cable until the
entire system has been properly set up per these instructions.
4.7 On-site Functional Test, Calibration and Training
All Starrett vision metrology systems and optical comparators are calibrated at the factory prior to
shipment; however, it is possible that components may have moved during shipment. A
complete functional test and calibration are recommended following physical installation.
Professional system installation is normally provided by Starrett for all new vision metrology
systems and optical comparators sold in North America. Installation includes equipment setup,
on-site calibration and on-site operator training. While professional installation is a separately-
quoted line item, it is highly recommended and is purchased by most users.
As part of its setup services, Starrett oversees the equipment’s in-plant transportation to its
permanent location and uncrating. Starrett then performs the physical setup and electrical
connection, followed by a completed functional checkout. This typically takes 1/2 day for a
manual system. The system is then allowed to temperature stabilize overnight.
