Environmental conditions
When operating the scanner, make sure that the room is well ventilated to
ensure the proper operating conditions.
The installation site must be chosen so that
•The side distance between scanner and wall is at least 100 mm,
•The distance between the back of the scanner and the wall is at least 50
mm,
•The distance to a door or room entrance is at least one meter.
Place the scanner on a level and stable base. The load-bearing capacity of
the base must be suitable for the weight of the scanner (maximum 50 kg,
110 lbs.). The dimensions of the base must be suitable for the footprint of
the scanner.
After changing from a cold to a warm environment, allow at least one
hour for the scanner to adjust to the ambient temperature before
turning it on.
When the scanner changes from a cold to a warm environment,
condensation moisture may form inside the housing.
This disappears when the housing temperature has adjusted to the
ambient temperature. Condensation moisture can lead to poor scanning
results or even damage the scanner.
