+===== Collecting CalTester Data =====
 In order to use the CalTesterPlus program you need a set of properly collected data for each force platform you wish to calibrate. To collect a useful motion trial for the report mode follow the following process.
-===== Static Trials =====
+==== Static Trials ====
   - Set up your capture volume making sure that all force platforms and cameras are in the positions that they will remain in for following data collections.

   * Each example motion trial that is downloaded with the CalTesterPlus program meets these criteria.
-====== Compute Platform Pose ======
+===== Compute Platform Pose =====
 Computing the Platform Pose gives you a written report of the force platform's optimal location in your lab. This report can be saved as a text file and the values can be inputted into the data collection software that you use. You can either complete this tutorial using data you have collected in your own lab following the guide lines above, or by using the sample data that was provided when you installed CalTesterPlus. This sample data can be found on the following file path: C:\Program Files\C-Motion\CalTesterPlus\Samples\TutorialFiles

 **3. Check the CalTester rod labels:**\\
 (A) If the CalTester rod is not already labeled click the Guess Combinations button.\\
 (B) Verify that the CalTester Rod has been appropriately labeled. The proper labeling for the sample data is shown below. The Save Combination as Default button can be used if this is a naming convention that you will be reusing.

 **5. Check that the dimensions of the CalTester Rod are correct.**
 If you are using the sample data or the CalTester Rod manufactured by [[http://www.motion-labs.com/|Motion Lab Systems]] use the values that are specified below.
-If you have made your own rod you will need to enter the correct measurements. See [[CalTester:CalTesterPlus:Documentation:Overview#Report_Dimensions|here]] for more information.
