Preparation Before Compensation

Site setup

Before you begin the On-Site Compensation process, ensure that the scan site has the following facilities:

• Target sheets must be setup at the scan site at regular distance to the laser scanners between 1.5m to 3m.

• No windows or other reflective planes: The markers on the target sheets would be reflected if the scan site has any

windows or reflective surfaces. This can cause incorrect measurements.

• Lighting conditions are less important because On-Site Compensation is done with the laser, video images are not

used.

Connect Laser Scanner to Computer through Wireless LAN

To be able to transfer the scanned data directly to your computer, you must connect the computer with the laser scanner
and through WLAN to remotely access and control the scanner.

To connect to the scanner directly, follow this procedure.

1. Power on the scanner.

2. Navigate to

Manage > General Settings > WLAN

.

3. Toggle the

Status

button to the ON position.

4. Set the

Mode

to

Access Point
