• Ensure the lens is free of scratches or damages.
• Ensure the device is connected and powered on.
• Ensure a secure joint of the scanner with the tripod and make them stable.
• Do not touch the lens with your fingers lest fingerprints be left to affect data acquisition.

Note

• No need to place markers on the objects.
• Make sure the object to be scanned is in the visual field of the tracker.
• Do not cover, touch or damage the balls on the scanner when it is working.
• Do not move the object and the tracker during scanning.

When Scanning Markers in trak scan mode or in laser scan mode:

• Need to place markers on the objects.
• Place the markers evenly and randomly.
• Do not use damaged or incomplete markers.
• Do not use greasy, dusty, or dirty markers.
• Do not attach the markers to a surface with high curvature.
• If the device fails to capture markers, it will not emit laser lines.
• Four markers are required for the alignment of common areas.
• Ensure that the device’s camera can scan at least 3 markers within the normal scanning range.
• Please attach markers, whose diameter is smaller than 6mm, to the edges and/or small areas of the model.
• Ensure that the distance between markers is about 0.5m when scanning markers in trak scan and the distance between markers is about 20mm - 100mm when scanning in laser scan mode.
