 The third degree of adjustment is tilting the lens about the split at the top. If the top portion of the lens is at an angle with respect to the light coming from the X-Y scanners, there will be a kind of “ghost image”, which is a reflection off of the top surface of the lens. The lens angle should be adjusted so that the beams for the center of the projection are directly in angular alignment with respect to the top surface of the lens. Doing so will prevent the “ghost image” and the result will be perfect. The crude picture below shows the concept. The third degree of adjustment is tilting the lens about the split at the top.

-==== TheoryInstallation and Use ==== +3. LASER SAFETY NOTICE: It is possible for the SafetyScan Lens to become detached from the laser projectoror for its alignment to become affected during operation. Likewise it is possible for the laser power to suddenly increase beyond originally-tested levels. It is also possible that the SafetyScan lens chosen by the operator is not sufficient to ensure audience safety given a particular set of projection and audience parameters. These events and others may increase the risk of unsafe laser exposure.  YOU ARE, THEREFORE, COMPLETELY AND SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR SCAN-FAIL SAFEGUARDS, BEAM STOPS, AUDIENCE SEPARATION DISTANCES, AIRCRAFT OBSERVERS, MEASUREMENTS AND CALCULATIONS, AND/OR ANY OTHER MEASURES NECESSARY TO PREVENT THE OVERALL LASER PROJECTION SYSTEM FROM PRESENTING A LASER SAFETY HAZARD.
