Geometric calibration (ScanMate F10 only)
Why is it necessary
A special automatic calibration routine is used for checking the geometrics of the mirror system
in the ScanMate F10.
• Geometric calibration should be carried out at the time of installation and should also be done
any time you change the physical placement of the scanner.
• A special XY Calibration Target is supplied with the scanner. IMPORTANT: The target must be
kept in good condition. If it becomes scratched or damaged, the calibration results will be
incorrect. Keep the target in the envelope provided and store it in a safe place. If necessary, a
new target can be purchased from your authorized Purup-Eskofot dealer.
Carrying out geometric calibration
1 • Using the registration pins for the Bacher Control 2000 system, place the XY Calibration
Target on the mounting plate.
2 • Choose Calibrate Geometry from ColorQuartet’s Calibration menu.
3 • Click on OK to confirm.
Geometric calibration will automatically be carried out, and a mes-
sage will appear to tell you whether it was successfully completed.
