Connecting surfaceCONTROL 3D 25x0 to the PC

To connect surfaceCONTROL 3D 25x0 via Ethernet to the PC, proceed as follows:
1. Complete the installation of the software.
2. Connect surfaceCONTROL 3D 25x0 to the PC using the Ethernet interface.
3. Turn on the power supply.
3. Wait until the surfaceCONTROL 3D 25x0 measuring system is recognized by the PC. This takes about 1 minute.
i
To be able to operate the measuring system, the controller and the PC must be located in the same subnet.
The sensor starts in DHCP mode. If there is no DHCP server in the network or if no address has been assigned manually,
the sensor and network adapter assign themselves an address (Link Local Address).
You can now operate the surfaceCONTROL 3D 25x0 measuring system using the operating programs listed above.

Notes for Operation

6.4.1

Measurement Area

The measurement area of the sensors is factory-set.
The area illuminated by the projector is relevant for the actual measurement area of the sensor. The cameras are ar-
ranged in such a way that both cameras capture the area illuminated by the projector within the complete measuring
volume.
The measuring range in Z direction is trapezoidal due to the point-shaped light source of the projector and the fan-out
over the lens.
6.4.2

Calibration

The calibration of the sensor serves to determine the orientation of the camera coordinates in the coordinate system of
the inspection system and is carried out with the aid of a pre-calibrated calibration target.
The sensor is factory calibrated upon delivery. An acceptance report is included with each sensor.
