Scanning cannot be entered if calibration is not done after installing the software. There is a WARNING: No calibration data, please calibrate first.
Calibration After software installed, in the choose device type interface choose “Pro+”, click “Next”, the software will enter the calibration mode. It will show the below picture if the device only has two cameras. (Texture camera is not attached). The left side guide bar include camera calibration. It will show the below picture if the device has three cameras.
Camera Calibration The left side of camera calibration interface is guide bar, right side is calibration video. Calibration board need to be placed in five positions during calibration, each captures five pictures. Place the board according to software guide. First, adjust the distance between projector and calibration board (450mm-550mm) according to software guide.
Page 21
Camera Calibration When pictures of one position are well collected, the software will turn to the next position with buzzer as below: Put the calibration board on the support according to the instruction. The collection is same as above. When all five positions photos are captured, the software will calibrate the camera automatically.
White balance calibration During the texture calibration, just place texture camera towards white area of the reverse side of calibration board, click on the hardware, and move the scanner up and down, until one box is ticked, and the white balance test is completed. The picture below will show up when the calibration is successful.
Calibration Precautions You must finish all the calibration steps according to the instruction when you calibrate at the first time. If resolution is lost under HD Mode, or environment light changes and influences the scanning, you can do line calibration or white balance calibration solely. Situations as below need do calibration again: ①...
Accuracy Diagnostic If markers can’t be recognized, tracking lost or misalignment happens often, you can do Accuracy Diagnostic. If the result of the tolerance is big, please recalibrate. Choose Accuracy Diagnostic from the calibration tool bar in the right, the way is same as camera calibration.
Help Mode for Beginner Choose Fixed Scan, click ‘Next’ to enter the interface of two scan modes selection. Choose Auto Scan, as shown below, click “Next”. Help Mode for Beginner is the default selection, which is to guide the new users make a scan completely step by step.
Auto Scan Enter the interface of New Project and Open Project, the default project save location is the desktop, then it will remember where the user last created a new project.

1. What if no scan data when the turntable has rotated one circle? Solution: Please make sure that the object won’t block the mark points on the turntable. Or, there will be no fringe pattern, while turntable will be still rotating. If the align mode is mark point, please make sure that the marks on the turntable are covered, so as not to affect the scanning.

(2) Scan markers on the workpiece rapidly. Do spiral rotating via transition zone. Scan as many mark points as possible on both sides and transition zone to build frame. The faster, the better. (3) After building frame, scan the surface of workpiece slowly and carefully to finish the whole scan.
