4 With your eyes about one foot from the viewnder (viewpoint 1), use the

visual cue tabs to look directly through the target crossbars. Tilt the sensor until the target location
lines up between the target crossbars.

5 Pan the sensor until the target location is centered between the

notches in the target crossbar. When you have the correct view
