Note (Remarque lors d’une installation)
Safety Precautions (Remarque pour sécurité)
• Avoid setting up the scanner in an environment where there is a direct
exposure to a sunlight. The strong light can interfere with the projection light from
the scanner and in turn can affect the scan performance.
(Lors d’une installation du produit, évitez le rayon direct. Si le projecteur est
exposé sur le rayon direct, la qualité de produit du data de balayage baisse.)
• Once you turn on the scanner, the scanner needs about 10 seconds to boot up.
Please run the ScanApp SW after the scanner nishes booting.
(Après l’alimentation élecrique au produit, on a besoin d’un temps de préchauffage
du scanner environ 10 secondes. Le programme de balayage fonctionne
après avoir ni le préchauffage.)
• Do not use USB WiFi adapters along with the Edge scanner. In order to obtain
the maximum performance, Edge uses the full USB bandwidth. Using USB WiFi
adapters may result in scan failures.
(Il ne faut pas utiliser à la fois le scanner et l’équipement d’USB sans l an
d’obtenir le meilleur data de balayage. Lorsqu’on utilise le scanner ey
l’équipement d’USB sans l ainsi que la carte de LANsans l d’USB etc,
il peut se produire une erreur du balayage.)
• It is good practice to perform Scanner Calibration everyday but it is not mandatory.
Do calibrate the scanner at least once a week or right after the scanner had been
moved to another place.
(On recommande d’exécuter une seule fois pas an le travail en coopération.Aussi,
au moment d’avoir déplacé le scanner, on doit exécuter le travail en coopération.)
• Hazardous Direct Light – Keep
eyes away from the direct light while
in operation.
(Interdit de regarder directement le
rayon du projecteur émis pendant le
fonctionnement du balayage.
Le rayon émis du projecteur pourrait
nuire aux yeux.)
