Abstract:
An imaging member adjustment system for an imaging module includes an imaging field opposing the imaging module and positioning targets provided in connection with the imaging field. The imaging module includes an optical source generating an optical path, an imaging member responsive to input from the optical source, and a lens interposed between the imaging member and imaging field. At least one adjustment mechanism is operatively connected to the imaging member for adjusting the imaging member with respect to the imaging field. A controller operatively communicates with the imaging member and the at least one adjustment mechanism. In operation, the positioning targets interrupt the optical path and provide positioning information to the controller. In turn, the controller signals the at least one adjustment mechanism to adjust the imaging member in any of horizontal and vertical direction to optimize focus and alignment of the imaging member with respect to the imaging field.
