camera box unit against damages!
Before inserting the transportation locks the camera box unit must be moved into transport
position.
The transport position of the camera box unit is at the back side of the scanner – seen
from the operator’s position.
When the power down sequence ends normally, the camera box unit moves to its
transport position. If the camera box unit is in any other position after switching off, restart
the device as described in chapter A.11.1.
Afterwards turn it off as described in chapter A.11.2. The power down sequence moves
the camera box unit to the transport position, finalizes all internal processes in the scanner
and switches the device to stand-by mode.
Switch off the WideTEK 25 at the main power switch (see Picture 7).
Picture 5: Inserting the transportation lock
Insert carefully the transportation locks which come with the scanner.
Hand-tighten by turning it clockwise. Using more force could result in damage of the
camera box unit.
