Chapter 6: Getting Started

resolutions) and if it is important that these scans have the same horizontal
start angle, then you should neither switch off the scanner nor change the
quality between the recordings of these scans.

Vertical area - The size of the vertical scan area in degrees. Tap the fields to
enter the values of the vertical start angle and vertical end angle.
Horizontal area - The size of the horizontal scan area in degrees. Tap the
fields to enter the values of the horizontal start angle and horizontal end angle.
Default Area button - Tap to reset the values to the default scan area (vertical

The rectangle in this view illustrates the full scan area. If there are scans on
the inserted SD card, the preview picture of the last recorded scan is
displayed. If there is no preview picture available, a grid is displayed, where
the space between the horizontal and vertical lines is equivalent to 30°. The
highlighted rectangle illustrates the selected scan area.
