Safety notes
The equipment described in this document should be used only in industrial environments for
straightness measurements. Care must be taken to ensure that the parts must not be subjected to
mechanical knocks. Laser beam safety precautions must be followed.

The first screen shows when straightness started is the introduction menu
Straightness measurement
The laser alignment system used visible laser beam to measure the straightness of linear objects.
The laser transmitter (transducer that emits laser beam) is mounted at one end of the object and then
aimed in the receiver. Both the transmitter and the receiver are adjusted to ensure receiver detects the
laser. The receiver is moved along the object, and any changes of the laser beam position in the receiver
gives a measure of straightness. The laser beam is not intended to be the absolute reference. The setup
should be such that the laser beam always strikes the detector throughout the entire length being
measured.
Setup screen
The setup screen is the main screen of straightness subprogram.
Splice number
You should define overlap
points quantity when
splice number >1
Set dimensions
To set dimensions press ‘2’ to select between all distances equal or different distances for each
segment. Then sequentially define distances by pressing ‘*’ and entering desired value.
When distances defined splice concept(see splice concept) should be followed if splice usage planned.
Define splice
When splices planned to be used the splice should be defined. Press ‘3’ and then enter splice
number(the first splice is number 1). Else leave splice ‘none’.
Adjustment procedure
Place the receiver at the closest(to transmitter) measurement position. Adjust beam position to center
the beam onto the detector. With the receiver at the far end of the measurement path, adjust the
horizontal and vertical angle of the beam to center onto the detector. Repeat above steps as necessary
until the beam remains centered on the detector in both the near and far positions.
Carrying measurements
To switch to data collect screen press ‘START’
Place the receiver at the closest measurement position for object(or splice)
Use “UP or ‘DOWN’ (if necessary) to select the corresponding point number.
Point
number If showed means
overlap point
To select reference points press ‘4’ and then enter points numbers sequentially(set value and press
enter for each of points) .
Note: overlap point should not be selected as reference! To deselect reference points enter 255 value
for both points
Splice concept
Splices in straightness are partial overlapped parts of whole length of measured object.
Measurement divides by splices for the extension of the total length that can be measured, where
object length exceeds maximum allowed distance between transducers.

If you move transmitter from it’s last position, two point adjustment procedure should be
performed(see adjustment procedure).
Place receiver at point where you intend to make corrections. Press ‘4’ to enter live mode.
String “LIVE STOP” appears at screen’s top right side. When you ready to move press ‘START” to enable
live move detection. The “LIVE LIVE” start blinking at top right side of screen.
The V and H values at screen’s center now shows difference between desired and real object positions.
Move object toward zero of each of these values. To stop live correction press “START” again “LIVE
STOP” appears at screen’s top right side
