Conventions for Command Reference (Chapter 2)

Chapter 2 “Command Reference” (from page 21) gives an explanation of the function and operating procedure
of each command in the menu order.
The shortcut key and the icon (displayed on the tool bar) are also shown in the command title.
We recommend that you make extensive use of shortcut keys when running this software. Note that while
software keys indicated in the command reference are effective by default, you are free to add new shortcuts
and to customize the existing ones.

For information about using and customizing shortcut keys, see page 242.

File – Import – Digitizer – Step Scan (When VIVID 900/910 is Selected)

Performing Step Scan with the VIVID 910 or VIVID 900

This command is used to take two or more shots using the rotating stage via the remote control function of this
software. If a rotating stage has been selected by the Turntable, rotation of the stage can also be controlled.
After the necessary shots are taken, scan the calibration chart required for calibration of rotation. Data ac-
quired from different angles will be subjected to registration, and the resulting data will appear.

Warning

Never stare into the laser emitting window.
Do not place a lens, mirror or optical element in the passage of the laser beam. Doing so may converge the
laser beam, resulting in damage to your eyes, burns or fi re. To prevent the above accidents, make sure that a
wall or similar which can block the laser beam is located behind the object.

When Using Only the Rotating Stage

the digitizer you are going to use is selected by the File
