tor of the main power supply. Close unused connection plugs with the provided 

protective caps. Switch on the power supply (24 VDC).

Only connect the sensor to the peripheral equipment, if it is disconnected from 

the power supply, i.e. only when the operating voltage is switched off. The sen-

sor needs a warm-up time of typically 20 minutes for high precision measure-
ments.

  Please wait until the scanCONTROL device is recognized by the PC.

This may take a few seconds. 

Now you can operate the scanCONTROL measurement system with the scanCON-

TROL software packages.

Operating a scanCONTROL sensor via Ethernet may require a modification of 

the IP settings of the PC/sensor or a modification of the firewall settings, see
