Parameter Description
Method
Function: select the image acquisition method.
Selection: Rocked, Linear.
Linear mode: during the sweep, the probe must be kept parallel. The scanning speed
should be constant.
Rocked mode: in this mode, the probe must be moved to a position where you can
clearly see a middle cut of the object you want to scan and render. Tilt the probe to about
30 degrees until the object you want to scan disappears. Start the acquisition and tilt the
probe over a distance of around 60 degrees until the object disappears again. During the
sweep, the probe may not be moved parallel, just tilted.
Tip: the speed is related to scanning distance or angle.
Distance
Function: to set the distance the probe covered from one end to the other end during a
linear sweep.
Range: 10-200 mm, in increments of 10 mm.
Angle
Function: to set the angle the probe covered during a fan sweep.
Range: 10-80°, in increments of 1°.
Acquiring
Time
Function: to set the acquiring time of the Smart 3D acquisition.


Scanning plane and probe movement
Move the probe across the body surface.
The arrow in the figure below indicates the movement of the probe (you can move the probe in the
opposite direction to the arrow.).
