2)  Attach the checking lens to the lens test projector, and set the equipment as shown in Fig. 4-3-2.
3)  Turn the fan switch of the lens test projector to ON, then turn the lamp switch to ON.

4)  Turn the focus ring of the checking lens until the chart image projected on the screen is the sharpest at the center (y  = 0).
5)  Set the plane mirror to the center of the projected image (y  = 0), and adjust the projector position so that the mirror reflects the light to 
the center of the lens.
2.  Projective Resolving Power Checking Method
1)  Turn the focus ring of the checking lens until the chart image projected on the screen is the sharpest at the center (y  = 0).
2)  Read the number of the smallest pitched lines at the center (y  = 0).
 
The number represents for lines per mm.
Sagittal (S)
Meridional (M)

4-3-3
3)  Rotate the mount rotational plate of the lens projector while observing y  = 9, y  = 12, y  = 15 or y  = 18 and stop it at the location where 
the projective resolving power is worst (low).
 
Read the number of the smallest pitched lines (both sagittal and meridional: 3 lines) at the peripheral point.
Note: 
When reading the number of the smallest pitched lines, be careful of the spurious resolution.
 
 
Spurious resolution is the reversed image of 2 or 4 lines which appears on screen when focus is beyond maximum revolving power as shown in 
Fig. 4-3-4.
 
 
Do not confuse spurious resolution for the smallest pitched lines.

4)  Change the focal length and projected length of the checking lens. (In case of the zoom lens), project the S image and the M image at 
each focal point/projected length and confirm that the number of resolution satisfies the specification of the Table 4-3-1.
5)  Switch the switch knob of the switch panel block of inspecting lens to  MF .
