When using the visualization software EaiLidarTest to check the point cloud data, the user need

to penetrate the firewall of the operating system to obtain the data. It is recommended to add the

software to the list of allowed software in the firewall. Operation method: “Control Panel” - “System

and Security” - “Allow applications to pass through the firewall”, allowing EaiLidarTest to pass

through the firewall.

How to Use EaiLidarTest

YDLIDAR provides EaiLidarTest, a point cloud data visualization software for TEA real-time

scanning. Users can use this software to visually observe the TEA scanning map: YDLIDAR

provides TEA real-time point cloud data and real-time scanning frequency. At the same time, the

scanned data can be saved offline to an external file for further analysis.

Run the evaluation software: EaiLidarTest.exe, select the corresponding model number, click

“Login”. Meanwhile, users could choose language based on our personal situation (“Help” in the

upper left corner).
