The CP40 calibration objects consist of black points on a white back-
ground. The larger points in the middle inform the ATOS software
about the calibration panel type, e.g. calibration object CP 40 for
measuring volume MV300.
Each point was measured photogrammetrically in the factory. Always
ensure that the calibration panel is clean (see section 10.3.1).
For each calibration panel there is a CD containing the calibration da-
ta (file extension
.calobj
) and the certificate.
A unique serial number provides for correct matching of calibration ob-
ject, certificate and calibration data.
Calibration CD with serial no. File name calibration data Serial no. of calibration panel
Certificate with serial no.

Handling Instructions for Calibration Panel CP 40
The surface of the calibration panel is very sensitive. Therefore, nev-
er touch the surface directly with your hands.
Calibration panels for measuring volumes MV 250 and larger remain
in the case during the calibration process. Only the case cover is re-
moved. Please remove the case cover carefully to prevent any dam-
age to the surface of the panel.
Clean the surface of the panel using the enclosed microfiber cloth
from the standard tool box. Wipe the surface gently only. Never exert
any pressure.
Damaged points will not be used for calibration.
Soiling and damages in the area of the larger calibration points in the
middle may cause that the ATOS software does not identify the pan-
el!
If you use multiple ATOS COMPACT SCAN sensors, please check
that the serial number of your calibration object matches the calibra-
tion data in the software. The software only checks the correct type
of the panel but not the serial number.
It is mandatory that the serial number of the calibration object is iden-
tical to the serial number of the calibration object in the ATOS soft-
ware!
Otherwise your measuring system may provide inaccurate
measuring data!
