Finding Beam on Screen

From the device's camera control screen, pgpCamTop, slowly adjust the Trigger Delay and Exposure time values, in the Acquisition Settings, until beam is found. It is recommended to start with the largest Exposure time without loss of Capture rate, this ranges depending on camera used, then adjusting the Trigger Delay until beam is found. Then dialing in the Exposure time and Trigger Delay from there. If unable to find beam regardless of settings, inform the physicists that the reflection may not be bright enough at the location with the installed target screen.
