Setting the scanning area
If you wish to limit the scanning area, such as in cases where you wish to scan only a portion of an object, make the settings as described
below.
Click [Scanning Area] in the Controller window. The [Scanning Area] dialog box appears.
1
Make the settings for the scanning area.
Make the settings to match the location where the scan object is secured in place.
Either of the following two methods can be used to make the settings.
- Use the mouse to move the blue frame on screen.
- Enter the numerical values for the upper-right and lower-left points.
The size of the on-screen scanning area (shown in blue) changes to match the values that are entered.

Click [Begin Area Test].
The sensor moves to a position above an outer point on the scanning area that has been set.
Make sure the scan object that has been secured in place lies within the area.
3
Click [Z Upper Limit].
The cursor
is displayed on the Z upper-limit setting on screen.
Specify the highest position of the scan object. Clicking [Apply] or double-clicking on the target lowers the sensors to the target's
center position.
If the target is displaced, redo the settings.
* Set the Z upper limit to the highest position on the object to be scanned.
During scanning, if the sensor detects a position higher than the Z upper-limit setting, the setting is cleared and
scanning continues with the greatest scan height of Dr. PICZA as the Z upper limit.
