Recalling a Grid for Review
1 After you have finished collecting a grid and
selected Close Grid, you will see the
Scan3D Scan Setup screen. Click Up on the
handle keypad to return to the Scan3D Main
Menu (at right).
2 Click Right to goto Playback Setup.
3 Click Right to goto Files.
4 Click Right to activate the file list and then
Up/Down or scroll with your finger to line
up the desired Grid file with the yellow
selection arrow.
5 Click the middle handle keypad button or
tap the empty box next to the Grid file to select it.
6 Click Left to activate the handle keypad and then Down to select Playback. You will see a status bar
which says “Loading Grid.” The grid will automatically display once it is finished loading.
Analyzing 3D Data
The menu carousel will have the following options once the grid displays:
Slice: This toggles between three horizontal
plane slice thicknesses: Thin: ½” (1 cm),
Thick: 2” (4 cm) and Full thickness. A full
thickness slice has the top locked at the surface
and you can move the bottom of the slice. This
is useful if you want to core all the way
through the slab and need to see everything in
one view (like an X-ray image).
Viewpoint: Toggles through the multiple grid
views plus the 2D linescan image.
Grid Line: Toggles to the individual lines in
the grid which are then viewed in the
2D linescan and the oblique 3D views.
The currently selected line is noted at the top-
left corner of the screen.
Contrast: Allows you to change the distribution of the color table along the amplitude scale. This is
useful for highlighting certain areas of the data such as bright reflection from metals. The current color
values are displayed above the grid image.
Save Image: Take a screenshot and save it as a PNG image file for later transfer off of the Mini XT.
