Be sure you have enabled the 'Use Beam Centroid' option within the Pupil
Definitions Setup panel in order to couple the displayed pupil position to the
measured beam centroid position.
Optical Power
Due to the implemented automatic shutter control of the CCD camera the Wavefront
Sensor can handle optical power in a wide dynamic range. Note that the sensitivity is
strongly wavelength dependent, see Typical Wavelength Curves . Especially at the
edges of the sensitive wavelength range (300 - 1100 nm for WFS150-5C and
WFS10-5C) there is a drastically reduced sensitivity which allows measurement of
higher power sources directly. On the other hand, the Wavefront Sensor can get
