3. Perform macro movements, as follows:
a. Start with large-but gentle-movements. See the Figure above. Beginning at the top, move the arm of the device left/right. The body,
sometimes referred to as the turret, of the Geomagic Touch device will pivot until it reaches a physical limit. Again, do not try to force
the device past any of the mechanical stops.
b. Next, move the stylus up/down. The primary movement will happen in the shoulder of the Geomagic Touch device.
c. Next move it in/out with the primary movement happening in the elbow. When you reach a physical limit, you'll feel one of the
device's mechanical stops. Don't force the device past any of these stops.
4. Next, perform micro movements further down the haptic device, moving the device at the stylus.
a. Holding the stylus with one hand rotate left/right at the top of the yoke.
b. Next pivot it up/down at the bottom of the yoke where it joins the stylus.
c. Finally, gently twist the stylus back/forth.
Now you should have an understanding of the range of motion of the Geomagic Touch device at each axis point and where its limits
are.
WARNING: Always work with the connected end of the stylus pointing away from you. Never rotate the stylus with the point facing
you.
