The auto align now will overwrite any previous align data. To preserve current auto align data,
select Switch Path No Auto Align.
The data returned by the alignment is stored in both the 9 µm and the 50 µm table. With the data
stored on both tables, the centering for the 50 µm path is improved due to the increased resolu-
tion bandwidth of the 9 µm path. Once the align is complete or if you select No Auto Align, the
instrument will be ready to detect data via the 50 µm path.
