PARKING GUIDELINE ADJUSTMENT
contin.
When setting the guidelines it is suggested to use the
grid and measurements in Figured K as a guideline.
iBEAM suggests laying tape or using chalk to mark off
the measurements to properly assist in adjusting the
guidelines.
When calibrating the guidelines, there will be numbers
on the top of the screen.
•XL and XR refer to the position of the left and right
lines on a X-axis
•YL and YR refer to the position of the left and right
lines on a Y-axis
•NUM-L and NUM-R refer to the rotation of the left
and right lines
10 FT
6.5 FT
1.25 FT
3.25 FT
(Figure K)
The YL and YR numbers should match and the NUM-L and
NUM-R should match. The XL and XR will not because of their
position on the screen.
