Fuel3D SCANIFY F3D2001 User Manual page 20

Ideal conditions for scanning would be indoors with standard home or office lighting. If
lighting is too dark you can use the guide lights. These are on by default whilst scanning but
can be toggled 'Off' or 'On' within the Viewfinder interface.
Ensure there are no lights or reflected lights in the scan capture area. Shiny objects, such as
jewellery, may also cause problems.
Capturing a scan
A scan can be captured once the scanner is in range of the target. To capture a scan you
can depress either of the triggers or click on the 'Capture' button in the viewfinder.
If you cannot properly see the item or the system is having a problem locking onto the
target you can half depress the scan button on the scanner. This will turn on the scanners
own lights and enable the scanner feedback.
Once a scan is captured a preview will be displayed in place of the live view. You can then
select whether to save or discard the scan.
Selecting 'Save' will begin the processing of the scan and will refresh the live view. You
won't be able to view the scan until processing is complete. You can see the progress of the
processing via the timer in the lower pane, below the scan preview thumbnail.
Note:
 Once a scan has been taken, it will take 15 seconds for the flashes to cool
down before you can take another scan. This is shown by the progress bar at
the bottom of the Viewfinder.
