CAUTION
Potentially hazardous optical radiation
The scanner transmits potentially hazardous optical radiation which
may cause harm to the eyes.
➢ During operation, do not look directly at the scanner for long
periods.
IMPORTANT
Potential switch-off procedure
In the case of several repeated scans of the image fields without
model calculation, the scanner can deviate from the calibrated
temperature range. In this case, a warning message appears and you
need to take a scanning break prior to completing the exposures.
Please pause your scan for about as long as the remaining scan
would need. The potential switch-off procedure is innocuous for your
scanner and is not a malfunction.
IMPORTANT
Heating up the scanner
The internal scanner heating ensures that condensation does not
form during scanning. The heating starts immediately after connecting
the scanner to the coupling box and connecting the coupling box to
the mains using the power supply unit. After around five minutes the
scanner is free of condensation. This is usually the case through to
navigation into the exposure phase.
IMPORTANT
Changes to the Windows settings
Do not make any changes to the Windows settings that could affect
the performance of the system.
IMPORTANT
Power supply during the scanning process
Do not disconnect the power supply to the laptop during the scanning
process, as this will restrict the performance of the system.
