DIMENSIONING SETUP AND CALIBRATION

6. Next, use a level to determine the height (H) of the package. Rest one end of the level at
the highest spot on top of the package, and then, when the bubble or digital readout
indicates level, measure form the bottom of the level to the surface on which the package
is resting.

7. When you have determined the length, width, and height for the cuboid needed to contain
the shape, run the irregular box through the system and check the dimensioning system
results against your results. The dimensioning system results should be similar to those
determined by directly measuring.
See section 5.5.
You can also compare the volume (L x W x H) of your measured dimensions against the
volume of the measurements returned by the dimensioning system. If your dimensions
differ greatly from those returned by the dimensioning system, recalibrate the system
(see sections 5.4 and 5.5) and compare the dimensions again.
NOTE : The cuboidal dimensions and volume may vary
depending on what side of the package you use as the
baseline against the straightedge. You may need to
measure using different baseline edges to determine the
smallest possible cuboidal dimensions.
The dimensioning system should always return results for
the package
’s smallest possible cuboidal dimensions.
