1)
Perform the following steps (1) to (3), and incorporate the internal lenses of the lens test projector according to the checking focal-
length.
(1) Open the lid of the lens test projector.
(2) Pull up and turn the fixed levers on the right and left sides of the lens test projector.
(3) Remove or insert the lens.
Note:
Be sure to have the right position and direction of the lens.

2)
Attach the checking lens to the lens test projector, and set the equipments as shown in Fig.4-3-2.
3)
Turn the fan switch of the lens test projector to ON, then turn the lamp switch to ON.

4)
Turn the focus ring of the checking lens until the chart image projected on the screen is the sharpest at the center (y’=0).
5)
Set the plane mirror to the center of the projected image (y’= 0), and adjust the projector position so that the mirror reflects the light
to the center of the lens.

2. Checking Method
1)
Turn the focus ring of the checking lens until the chart image projected on the screen is the sharpest at the center (y’=0).
2)
Read the number of the smallest pitched lines at the center (y’= 0).
Fig.4-3-3
3)
Turn the mount rotation ring of lens test projector until the projected image at a certain peripheral point (y’= 15) on the screen
appears the most unsharp.
Read the number of the smallest pitched lines (both saggital and meridional: 3 lines) at the peripheral point.
Note:
When reading the number of the smallest pitched lines, be careful of the spurious resolution.
Spurious resolution is the reversed image of 2 or 4 lines which appears on screen when focus is beyond maximum revolving
power.
Do not confuse spurious resolution for the smallest pitched lines.
Fig.4-3-4
4)
Check that the all readings (y’= 0, saggital (S) and meridional (M) at y’= 15) is within the specification of the Table 4-3-2.
When the specification is not satisfied, perform the following procedure.
• Remove the front ball lens block set and turn the block 120 degrees, then reattach the block.
• Replace the front ball lens block set or rear ball lens block.

then turn the fan switch to OFF.
