Data acquisition and storage is controlled via the software. A live video image
of the object is displayed on the monitor and you can define scan points
directly on this live video image. You set all acquisition properties in the
software. For evaluation, the acquired data is overlaid directly onto recorded
video image. You can also export data to various software packages, e.g. for
modal analysis.
4.1
Starting the System
To make a measurement, proceed as follows:
Setup
1. Assemble and cable the system as described in S
3.4.
2. Turn the key switch on the front of the front-end to position O.
3. Close the beam shutters on the front of the scanning heads.
4. Position the scanning heads so that the laser beam apertures are roughly
aligned with the object. If possible, set up the scanning heads at an
optimal stand-off distance to the object to be measured. You will find
information on optimal stand-off distances in S
4.3.
Switch on
5. Switch on the front-end by turning the key switch to position I.
The
POWER
L
ED
on the front of the front-end lights up. If all the
connecting cables are correctly installed, then the
POWER
L
ED
on the
junction box and the
LASER
L
ED
s on the scanning heads light up. Laser
light may not be emitted yet as the beam shutters are still closed.
6. Switch on all optional peripheral devices.
7. Switch on the PC.
8. Start the data acquisition as described in your software manual.
INFORMATION
Read the information on laser safety in S
1.3 before working with laser
radiation!
9. Open the beam shutters on the front of the scanning heads.
The laser beams are now emitted from the scanning heads.
Measure
10. Data acquisition is now fully controlled by the software. Once the laser
has warmed up you can setup the software, set the optics, define scan
points and make measurements as described in your software manual.
INFORMATION
The instrument does not reach its optimal metrological properties until a
warm-up period of approx. 30 minutes. For measurement tasks with high
angular stability requirements we recommend a warm-up period of 120
minutes. This applies especially when you are working with imported 3D
geometries.
