+====== Measurement setup ======
+First of all, make sure that your laser device is supported. You can test [[https://we-measure.io/test/device|here]] if connection is working. If this is not the case, please contact us and we will see, if we can add it. For details on supported devices please check our [[https://we-measure.io/faq|FAQ]].
+<alert warning>**Having the right measurement setup is crucial for the result. We do not recommend to trim your wing on your own. Hand it in to a check center with experienced personel.**

+==== Here is a non-exhaustive list of things to keep in mind: ====
+  * You must always use the correct and defined weight of exactly 5kg to load the lines in your measurement setup.
+  * Ensure that there are no other lines obstructing or pulling the line that you are measuring.
+  * Make sure that you are not moving left and right in the room or up and down when using a rail-based measurement system.
+  * The person who is performing the measurement has a big influence on the result. Use the same person for the entire measurement session.
+  * Use the review after a measurement to verify the plausibility of your data.
+  * Make sure to use the correct reference points for the measurement. Line lengths within we-measure.io are always measured including the risers. For brake measurements, follow the instructions of the wing's manufacturer.
+  * Ensure that the rails or pulleys you may be using for your measurement setup have a low friction with e.g. ball bearings. If they aren't, the load can vary massively.
