Manual Z Height Control Buttons
On the front of the Proscan Base there are four buttons to manually set the ‘Z’ axis height of
the sensor. This assists the placement of the sample to be scanned and then setting the
initial height of the sensor relative to the sample for optimum scan range. (Generally, 50% of
the sensor range reading).
Setting the Z height control in the Proscan Software (Please refer to the software manual)
enables the button functions.
Fast Move Button
Home Button
Down Button Up Button
It is essential that the ‘Z’ Axis is homed (fully up position) before attempting any height
adjustment.
Holding the Fast Move Button simultaneously with the Up / Down button will set a higher
move speed for initial placement. The final position can be ‘fine-tuned’ at the lower speed.
The sensor display is configured to show the percentage of the range, rather than height
reading as the mid-range point would differ for a particular sensor pen.

Camera
The Proscan 2200 system may have,
optionally, a camera installed to aid correct
placement of test sample .
This is mounted in close proximity and height
as the sensor pen.
(Nose cone cover shown removed)
7.1. Camera Application
The display from the camera is supported by a utility named
“ScantronCameraViewer”
As there is a physical offset from the camer
a’s focal point, there is a facility built into the Key
Move Stage control screen in the “Proscan” application that enables the user to move
between the sensor / camera focus position. Please refer to the software manual.
