6.14 Whole Beam fit equations
The bivariate normal equation is used to fit data in two locked directions, X and Y. The Whole Beam
selection assumes the beam is round or elongated parallel to the horizontal or vertical axis. The
definition of the bivariate normal equation and the displayed results are as follows:
