  • Page 24: Notes When Using The Instrument With Tripod

    Notes When Using the Instrument with Tripod When using the instrument with the tripod, first attach the tripod base plate to the instrument, and then attach the instrument to the panhead/tripod. To improve scanning accuracy, it is recommended that scanning be per- formed via the personal computer connected to the instrument, instead of pressing the [RELEASE] key.
  • Page 25 Notes When Using the Instrument with Tripod 2. Mounting the Instrument to the Panhead After you have attached the tripod base plate to the instrument, they need to be mounted to the recommended panhead as explained below. First, remove the accessory plate from the panhead, attach it to the instrument, then attach both to the panhead. Three screw holes are provided on the back of the tripod base plate (the side with rubber feet), to allow mounting the tripod base plate to the panhead.

  • Page 28: Replacing The Lens

    The closer the object to the VIVID 910, the higher the measurement accuracy is. On the other hand, influences of shades produced due to roughness on the surface of the object can be reduced if the object is positioned far from the VIVID 910.
  • Page 29: Replacing Procedure

    • Only the lenses supplied as standard accessories with the VIVID 910 can be used. (They are not compatible with oth- er VIVID models since they have been calibrated with the VIVID 910 only.) • Since the VIVID 910 is a precision instrument, do not leave it without lens when replacing the lens. Replace the lens as soon as possible.
  • Page 30 Replacing the Lens Hold the external edge of the fixing ring and pull it out. Hold the ring with your finger located near the red mark on the lens. This will facilitate pulling the lens. Attach the lens cap to the removed lens, place it in the lens case and keep it in a safe place.
  • Page 31 Replacing the Lens Attach the lens hood. Make sure that the notch is aligned with that on the lens, and turn the hood. The hood must be turned until it contacts the bayonet mount socket. Press any key. After approximately 10 seconds, “PLEASE OPEN LASER BARRIER AND PRESS ANY KEY”...

  • Page 35: High Quality Mode

    If the instrument is set to High Quality Mode when you read in memory-card data that was scanned at a VIVID 910, the instrument will automatically eliminate all data values that are outside the measurement range. This will be true even if High Quality Mode was not turned on at the time the original data were scanned.
  • Page 36 Scanning the Object Press The procedure is now complete. • If high quality mode is set to OFF (digitize mode), data outside the measurement range will be displayed in yel- low on the range image. • If high quality mode is set to ON, data outside the measurement range will be eliminated, therefore it will not be displayed on the screen.

  • Page 58: Explanation Of Measuring Principle

    Measuring Principle The VIVID 910 uses the light-stripe method to emit a horizontal stripe light through a cylindrical lens to the object. The reflected light from the object is received by the CCD, and then converted by triangulation into dis- tance information.
  • Page 59: High-Speed Image Processing Circuit

    Explanation of Measuring Principle High-Speed Image Processing Circuit The stripe light is scanned on the CCD image plane at two horizontal lines per frame (FAST mode) or one hor- izontal line per frame (FINE mode), and the CCD is driven so that the block readout start position is shifted two lines per frame (FAST mode) or one line per frame (FINE mode).
