1.4 Operational specifications
X300 supports four scan modes at different resolution (point grid).
Scan time varies according to the scan mode.

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.
