    24.7 The adjustment of horizontal axis error correction As the horizontal axis error only affects the angle of sight line, it can be only confirmed through observing the target of which height is obviously lower or higher than the instrument. To avoid the influence of collimation axis error, user must have an associated adjustment before adjusting collimation axis.
