American Dynamics RAS917WLS-1 - Manual (Page 55)

A random scan pans randomly between the left and right scan limits. For example, the scan may start
at point in the scan, then pan right 40° and pause, pan right 10° and pause, pan left 20° and pause, and
pan right until it reaches the right scan limit. Figure 4–8 illustrates a random scan. In this figure, the
dashed line represents the scan area, and the solid line represents the scan pattern. The circle on the
scan represents the start point. Each arrowhead represents a pause. “X” represents a change in
direction.
