    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.
