The display will show a software version number (e.g. 7.25) and will then start a 15 second countdown. The display will show Sd.

2)Insert Light Wand into Optical Standard. Be sure the silver stripe on the Light Wand is aligned with the silver stripe from the Optical Standard.

The display will now show 0.0. The zero adjustment has been made.

4)Remove Light Wand from the Optical Standard.

Install the Light Shield on the Wand as shown in the sketch (allow the Wand to protrude from the edge of the shield by about 1/4 of an inch).
