With Alignment Data highlighted, press the Enter key to start the data
acquisition procedure. The following screen will be displayed.

The next screen directs you to turn on the laser heads, position them at any
angular position you desire to start from, and then press the Enter key to
initialize the laser heads. It is not required to define a sweep arc range and
direction of rotation with the Dual Pass mode since this is a type of Manual
Sweep mode of operation. Once the laser heads are initialized the next
screen appears prompting you to now acquire the data by rotating the laser
heads. After the laser heads have been rotated as described in the above
scenario, press the Enter key transmit or transfer the data from the laser
heads to the analyzer.
Note
For the Auto Sweep and Dual Pass methods, if the laser heads
have not been turned off since they last acquired and stored a
set of data readings and prior to initializing them, pressing the
Alt/0 (Alt/Space) key will “Resend” the last set of data they
acquired and stored to the analyzer without having to resweep
the laser heads. This is useful if for some reason the data
transfer from the heads to the analyzer was aborted before it
was complete.
Caution!
To prevent damage to the laser heads, when the laser heads are mounted
in close proximity to each other, make sure the antennas do not come
into contact with each other as one laser head is rotated past the other.
