Initial setup of cameras and lenses When you first set up the scanner, image from the cameras may not be in focus or can be too bright or too dark due to different external lighting conditions. Adjust camera lenses, so that the brightness is acceptable: without the red overexposed areas and not too dark. Lens adjustment is carried out by rotating the ring on the objective. Loosen (do not unscrew!) the retention screw and rotate the ring. Lens adjustment is carried out by the following elements: 1. The iris tuning ring 2. The iris ring retention screw 3. The focus tuning ring 4. The focus ring retention screw Do not completely remove the retaining screws of the lens rings, it is enough just to loosen them. After you finished tuning the lens, lock the adjustment rings with the screws provided. 14 ...

Adjustment of the projector focus During the scanner operation the projector project structured light to the object - coded lines and stripes. To ensure that the lines are sharp, the projector must be focused on the working distance of the scanner. By switching the mode "Lines and Stripes", adjust the focus of the projector, so that the lines on the calibration plate were as sharp as possible. Check and if it’s necessary to adjust the projector focus. Bringing the cameras together For the work of the scanner it is necessary to point both cameras to the same position on the specified working distance. Install the calibration plate in front of the scanner on the found working distance (if you changed its position after the projector focusing procedure). ...
Final calibration of the cameras After the cameras are positioned align the projected cross with the central mark on the calibration plate and proceed. 17 ...

Before setting the exposure adjust the sharpness of the lenses: 1. Turn on "Black light" projector mode. 2. Set the minimal exposure value (1) using the slider. 3. Open the lens iris as much as possible without getting overexposure. 4. Adjust the lens sharpness. It is convenient to use camera view zoom by left-clicking the camera views to assess sharpness. Set the projector to the lines and stripes mode. Set the exposure for the cameras between 30 and 60 (less if the object, which you are planning to scan is dark and more if it is bright). By default the value is 45. 18 ...
