Your mechanical scanning system includes a disk containing BlueView's ProScan
sonar software, as well as Meshlab, a point cloud viewing program. For proper
system testing and operation, ProScan and Meshlab should both be installed on
your collection PC.
ProScan Installation
To install ProScan, insert the ProScan CD into your computer's CD-ROM drive
and follow the instructions to complete the installation. You may also launch the
installation by double clicking on "setup.exe" in the CD's root directory.
When ProScan starts, if a personal firewall is enabled, a warning message may
pop up saying that ProScan is attempting to connect to the network. BlueView
recommends selecting the option that will always allow ProScan to access the
network (which it needs to do to communicate with sonar).

optimum performance.
