outdoor use
, use the Power Block battery as the power supply, ensuring that the device is
protected from rain or spray water. Use the scanner in a non-condensing environment.
l
When the product is transferred from a cold to a significantly-warmer environment, water may
condense on some elements inside the scanner. To avoid this, place the scanner in an airtight plastic
bag before transfer. This allows the condensation to form on the bag rather than inside the scanner. If
you cannot pack the scanner in an airtight manner, wait until observable
condensation water
evaporates from the scanner before switching the FARO Focus Premium on.
l
If the scanner becomes wet, let it dry completely before placing it in the transport case. Ensure that
the foam in the case never gets wet while unpacking or packing the scanner.
DANGER:
Do not operate the scanner while the external power supply is plugged in. The power cable
might damage the turning scanner.
