 +**Basic Tuning**\\
 +Basic adjustments\\
 +The driver board comes already pre adjusted for 3 projection angle and needs to be set up for\\
 +the galvo only in small areas. Every galvo is different, so 3 of them adjustments are needed. For\\
 +this, the ILDA test pattern is used ,also a setup of the galvos in XY with a laser . If you need to\\
 +tune the driver faster to smaller angles, follow the procedure below . Also if the driver is totally\\
 +deadjusted , this will be the procedure to retune it :
 +
 +  * Size, Servo-Gain, Damping und HF-Damping are adjusted counter clockwise to their left zero position. Now turn LFD 5 full rounds clockwise to right.
 +  * Connect computer with ILDA test pattern, run it at approx. 20kpps.
 +  * Power on the amplifiers.
 +  * Slowly open the **servo gain** (clockwise). The mirror of the galvo should move now to its middle position. If yes, turn two rounds clockwise.
 +  *  Slowly open the **size** until you see the galvo moving.
 +  *  Increase **servo gain** until you see overshoots. Correct it with **LFD**.
 +  *  Decrease undershoots by opening the **HFD** pot slightly clockwise. Remove **gain/LFD** procedure and correct with **HFD**, until you the picture looks satisfying. Carefully fine tune the driver. The better your fine tuning is, the faster is the scanspeed.
 +  * Increase speed of test patterns and readjust for optimized picture
