１．Introduction

１．１ Main function

H100 series is measuring device to project angle displacement amount of laser beam on to a screen.

Applied laser beam is RED Laser Diode of wavelength 650mn, which performs excellent in directional

characteristic and safety use.

Aperturefunctionenablesvariabilityofcorediameterofthelaseralongwithmeasuringobjects. Laser intensity

adjustment toward CCD is available.

１．２ Before Use

Accessories

Auto Collimator package includes the following item:

AC adaptor 1pc (3m)

１．３ For your safety

Please read and follow the below safety instructions before using.

The mark “ ” indicates “DO NOT”

Any changes or modifications to your Auto Collimator not expressly approved in this document could void your

warranty for this equipment. The use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and will invalidate the

Auto Collimator warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the instrument. Use common-sense

guidelines to avoid dropping, hitting, or bending.

・For safety use “Caution”:

The Auto Collimator corresponds to Class 3A laser equipment code (Japanese code). It is highly recommended

that Laser equipment expert handle the installation and usage of the Auto Collimator. DO NOT look into the laser

beam nor observe it by any optical means. DO NOT touch laser beam window and avoid an object to touch it. Or,

Optical capability of the Auto Collimator will be degraded. When measuring through a screen attached, please

keep your eyes at least 10cm away from the screen.

・Connection Wirings

For H100 Auto Collimator, an AC adaptor is attached. Connect the adaptor to Auto Collimator before turning on the

power supply and use proper wiring connection. Do not use an authorized AC adaptor.

・Operating Environment

Avoid using the Auto Collimator unit in areas with the following place.

- The area with large amount of dust or coarse particles, especially metallic particles.

- Under direct sun light.

- Near fire.

- With vibration

- Where may come into contact with water or oil.

- Where may not be horizontal or not stable.

・Maintenance & Storage

Turn off the power supply and store the Auto Collimator in safe place when not using for long period.

It preserve unexpected accidental firing / breakage.

Caution ！

・ Electric supply

This Auto Collimator is AC100 power system (AC100V). When use outside of Japan, please prepare proper

voltage converter for your county electric supply. Or contact to us.

・Disassemble / Modification

Do not disassemble, modify or make improper repairs to the Auto Collimator.

It might cause unexpected accident. It is dangerous.

If you have questions, please contact with us.

・Repair needs

Please unplug the unit immediately and contact local distributor or Suruga Seiki / OST Overseas Sales office, if

any of the following occurs:

- The unit gives out an unusual sound; smell or smoke appears

- When the power code is frayed or damaged

- Water has spilled into the main unit

- Unit has been dropped or its outer shell has become damaged or cracked.

Please refer to page 15 for contact information.

Caution ！

２．Operation procedure

２．１ Configuration & Connection to External Equipment

Figure 2. Configuration & Connection to External E quipment

The Auto Collimator automatically turns on the power when AC adaptor is plugged. Use our optional items,

or your own stand, CCD camera, and monitor, in order as external equipment for measuring.

２．２ Measurement procedure

This introduces a measuring method, which applies a 2 axes Tilt stage (HB10) and Optical Parallel (HS-0). If your

purchased Auto Collimator main body only, follow similar method of this install instruction.

・Common instruction for Screen type and CCD type

① Install Auto Collimator main body onto 2 axes Tilt stage (HM10) and set Optical Parallel (HS-0). Refer to

Figure 3.

Figure 3. Set up example

② Keep the distance between laser beam window of the main body and Optical parallel (HS-0) within 100mm.

・Instruction for Screen type

③ After power on, adjust a point appearing on the screen at the center by adjusting 2 axes tilt stage. Refer to

Fig. 4.

Figure. 4 Adjustment

Before adjust After adjust

10

④ After the adjustment, place the object and measure.

When measuring by using a built-in screen of main body, the outer

circle becomes the maximum core angle of measuring range, and

the inner circle becomes a half (1/2) of maximum core. One scale

mark is one then (1/10) of the maximum core angle.

*Rad the center of laser diameter for measuring.

○Measuring Example

When using measuring range ±1°(H100-S100、H100-S100C) and it appears as Fig. 5, measuring

result show that approximately 0.6-inclination is observed.

⑤ Adjust laser intensity to the most visible level on a screen.

・Instruction for CCD Camera type

③Adjust the laser beam which is reflected by Optical Parallel

until it comes to the center of monitor screen. On the center

of the screen, display and match a cross line by using

Line Generator “VOPVG-30”. Then, place Precision Wedge

Plate, and display a circle with a radius that forms a distance

between the center of a cross line and the center of laser

diameter. This circle is to become an angle of the Precision

Wedge Plate.

Use it as a reference point for measuring. Refer Fig. 6 & 7.

*For detail instruction on displaying line, refer to an operation

manual of Line Generator VOPVG-30.
