vehicle parked, typically in a shop. Mazzon said
one consideration is space because the technician
needs to set up targets in order to calibrate the
camera. The shop will also need to invest in those
physical targets, along with any necessary fixtures
and other accessories to make them work.
Zenteno said ADAS manufacturer instructions
for performing a static calibration can sometimes
be confusing, which inevitably
adds time to the process.
That is why Autel designed its
ADAS CV calibration hardware
so the technician can
set up the target in a matter
of minutes.
" We've focused on making
it fast to set up for multiple
manufacturers, " Zenteno said.
" That comes down to being
able to set up the distance
quickly, centering the target
and crossbar quickly, and also
squaring the crossbar quickly. "
Another popular solution
for static calibrations is the
TEXA RCCS 3 ADAS calibration
frame. It is offered
in two versions, one with a
75-inch digital monitor and
the other with panel targets.
One advantage of the monitor
is that the shop doesn't
need to have numerous
panels on hand in order to
calibrate different types of
vehicles and ADAS sensors.
All of those different types
of panels can be displayed
digitally on the monitor.
A good diagnostic scan
tool is also a must. Mazzon
said a good one will guide
the technician through the
calibration process with an
intuitive user interface.
Patterson said Glass Doctor
shops throughout the country
use a variety of ADAS calibration
tools. Each has their pros,
cons, and limitations.
" Most of the tools out there
will get the job done today, "
Patterson said. " But one thing
we look at, because this is a
significant investment, is
what the manufacturer is
doing to improve their technology
for the future. ADAS
calibration has only come
on over the past six or seven
years, so it's still fairly new.
But the technology is changing
fast. We want a diagnostic
tool and ADAS calibration
system that stays on pace
with any new developments. "
Regardless of which calibration
solution a shop has,
the ADAS manufacturer

dictates which calibration method should be used.
Sometimes, it's a combination of both static and
dynamic. Whatever the case, Patterson said it's
critical that the technician actually performs the
calibration correctly. It is possible to perform a
calibration to the system's bare minimums, which
might allow it to " pass " and not throw any fault
codes. Thus, Patterson said some technicians just
put the camera back on after the windshield is
replaced, scan the vehicle, see that there aren't any
fault codes, and assume everything is fine. " It is
critical that the proper calibration procedure be
followed, " Patterson reminded.
