Chapter 1: Introduction
1.1 General
STONEX® is the manufacturer of the 3D Laser Scanning System STONEX X300.
Laser scanning is an automatic process during which real objects are surveyed and sampled
almost completely to determine their location, size, orientation and form. The STONEX
X300 rapidly determines high-resolution measurement results within very short time and
within a field of view of max. 360° horizontal and 90° vertical (-25° to +65°).

Table 2: Distance reference
1 The compression rate to generate the 2D view is 2000 points per column.
2 Fine and Standard scan modes share the same vertical spacing (distance between lines).
The spatial difference between the two modes lies in the speed of the scanner rotation (step angle) and
consequently in the number of points per scan line.
3 When using Standard scan mode, the acquired points are not resulting in a square grid.
The scan pattern is made by four columns of 1000 points each, as described in the following scheme.
The scanner rotation is the cause of the horizontal distribution of the points. As consequence, the vertical
step is out of phase and the grid is not square.

1.5 Precautions for Safety
◆Don’t collimate the sun directly
Don’t collimate the sun directly for protecting instrument.
◆Avoiding the vibrations on the instrument
When transporting, keep the instrument in the case and try your best to lighten vibrations.
◆Carrying the instrument
When carrying, the instrument handle must be hold tight.
◆Check the battery power
Before using the instrument, you should check the battery power whether it is enough.
◆Battery Maintenance
If the instrument is not in using for a long time, the battery should be taken out from the
instrument and stored in separate place. Meantime, the battery should be charged every month.
◆Taking out the battery
It is not suggested to take out the battery when the instrument is on. Otherwise, stored data
may be lost. So it is better to replace the battery after powering off the instrument.
◆Setting up the instrument on the tripod
When using it, please ensure the connection between tripod and instrument is firm.
◆Assembling the tribrach on the instrument
The setting of tribrach would influence the accuracy. The tribrach should be check frequently,
the screw which connects the tribrach must be locked tightly and the central fixing screw should
be tight.
◆High temperature condition
Don’t put the instrument in high temperature condition for a long time, it is bad for the
instrument performance and it can damage the hardware components.
◆Temperature changing sharply
The sharp temperature changing on the instrument will shorten the distance measurement
range.
For example, after taking the instrument out from a warm car to a cold condition, wait for some
time: it can be used when it adapts the surrounding condition.
◆The noise from the instrument
When the instrument is working it is normal if you hear noises from instrument motors.
They will not affect the instrument work.
◆Stored data responsibility
STONEX® should not be held liable for the lost data because of wrong operation.

9
1.6 Transport and shipping
◆Transport in the field
When transporting the equipment in the field, always make sure that you
either carry the product in its original transport container,
or carry the tripod with its legs splayed across your shoulder, keeping the attached
product upright.
◆Transport in a road vehicle
Never carry the product loose in a road vehicle, as it can be affected by shock and vibration.
Always carry the product in its transport container and secure it.
◆Shipping
When transporting the product by rail, air or sea, always use the complete original STONEX®
packaging, transport container and cardboard box or its equivalent to protect the instrument
against shock and vibration.
◆Shipping and transport of batteries
When transporting or shipping batteries, the person in charge of the product must ensure that
the applicable national and international rules and regulations are observed.
Before transportation or shipping, contact your local passenger or freight transport company.
◆Field adjustment
After transport, inspect the field adjustment parameters given in this user manual before using
the product.
1.7 Storage
◆Product
Respect the temperature limits when storing the equipment, particularly in summer if the
equipment is inside a vehicle. Refer to technical datasheet for information about temperature
limits.
◆Field adjustment
After long periods of storage, inspect the field adjustment parameters given in this user manual
before using the product.
◆LiPoly batteries
Remove batteries from the product and the charger before storing.
After storage recharge batteries before using.
Protect batteries from damp and wetness.
Wet or damp batteries must be dried before storage or use.
A storage temperature range of -20°C to +30°C/-4°F to 86°F in a dry environment is
recommended to minimize self-discharging of the batteries.

10
1.8 Cleaning and Drying
Never touch the cover glass with your fingers.
Use only a clean, soft, lint-free cloth for cleaning.
If necessary, moisten the cloth with water or pure alcohol. Do not use other liquids: these may
attack the polymer components.
Keep plugs clean and dry. Blow away any dirt lodged in the plugs of the connecting cables.
1.9 Definition of Indication
For the safe of your product and prevention of injury to operators and other persons as well as
prevention of property damage, items which should be observed are indicated by an
exclamation point within a triangle used with WARNING and CAUTION statements in this manual.

Before use it, check the central screw is tight.
GPS and Smart port connectors on the rear panel of the scanner are up to IP65 standard
when the protective caps are well mounted, or used with cables specified by STONEX®
(GPS, Ethernet and power supply connections).
The USB port is up to IP65 standard also without the rubber cap but it is mandatory to
keep the connector free from dust and water before using it. It is recommended to keep
the rubber cap on during the scan and to use the USB port in safe environment, in order
to avoid harming the device.

1.11.7 Toxological information
STONEX® Lithium-Ion rechargeable batteries do not contain toxic materials.
1.11.8 Ecological information
When properly used or disposed, STONEX® Lithium-Ion rechargeable batteries can be recycled
and do not present environmental hazard during their life time.
1.11.9 Disposal considerations
Dispose in accordance with applicable regulations, which vary from country to country.
Lithium-Ion batteries should have their terminals insulated and be preferably wrapped in

Recycling: send to authorized recycling facilities.
1.11.10 Handling and Storage
Use the battery properly according to the product specification, do not disassemble or short
circuit the battery.
Store away from sources of heat or ignition: over high temperature will make the cell inflate
melt the separator, causing short circuit.
The storage area should be cool, dry, well ventilated, out of direct sunlight, away from metal or
sharp edge, such as keys pins or wires.
