About this guide
If your blue and red laser dots still do not align on the same spot after a second calibration attempt, follow these steps to identify and address potential issues.
Possible causes and solutions
#1 Incorrect coordinates
- Check if you've entered incorrect coordinates.
- DO NOT Confuse X and Y Axes: The horizontal direction is the X-axis, and the vertical direction is the Y-axis.
- Check Signs and Quadrants: Ensure the correct positive or negative signs based on the cross's position in the coordinate system.
#2 Drive shaft coupling malfunctions
A broken-down drive shaft coupling will result in abnormal movement of the laser module.
Follow these steps to resolve it:
1. Check the drive shaft coupling screws
- Check for any loose screws on the drive shaft coupling.
- If any, tighten them securely and attempt the second calibration again by following the video tutorial below.
2. Replace the drive shaft coupling
- If tightening the screws does not resolve the issue, this suggests a potential malfunction of the drive shaft coupling
- Replace the drive shaft coupling before attempting the calibration again.
