Pre-Heating for Best Performance
The scan core will be heating when start working. We recommend pre-heating
RPLIDAR (Start the scan mode and the scan motor is rotating) for more than 2
minutes to get the best measurement accuracy.
Ambient Temperature
RPLIDAR’s measurement resolution is sensitive to the ambient temperature.
Improper use may even damage the sensor. Please avoid using RPLIDAR in
extreme high temperature (>40 degree) and too low temperature (<-10 degree).
Ambient Light
Although RPLIDAR is not sensitive to ambient light, improper use may still lead to
errors. In indoor environment, please avoid lighting RPLIDAR with strong light
source such as high-power laser.
In outdoor environment, please avoid facing RPLIDAR directly to sun light. This
may lead to permanent damage to the image sensor of RPLIDAR and make the
measurement invalid
The standard version of RPLIDAR may have less measurement range in the
environment with strong sunlight.
