The Inclination in degrees is displayed in the header bar. The following inclination warning message is
displayed if the current inclination of the scanner is above 5°.
Strong Scanner Inclination
Inclination of the scanner is not within +/- 5°. This could result in slightly inexact scan measurements.
Try to position the scanner so that its inclination is between +/-5°. To get reliable measurements from the
built-in dual-axis compensator, set-up the scanner with an inclination of less than 5° before starting the
next scan. To do this, use either a bubble level at the tripod or the inclinometer screen.
