Executing Scan-Extracted Auto Features

When executing manual scans from which Auto Features are extracted, you should do the following:

  1. Scan the Auto Features in your measurement routine in any order. You can do this with one or more passes. After the first pass, if the scan’s pointcloud points have changed for a feature, then the feature's measured values are recalculated.

  2. When all the Auto Features associated with the scan have solved successfully, the command in the Edit window is highlighted in yellow.

  3. When Auto Features have solved and have been reported correctly, the command in the Edit window is highlighted in green.

  4. If additional scan data is taken for a feature that has already been solved, the feature's measured values are updated again with the new solution.

  5. Once all of the included Auto Features have been solved, you may choose to continue scanning to further refine the measured results, or you can click the Scan Done button () from the Execution dialog box. You can also finish the scan by pressing the done button on your measurement arm.

The Scan Done button is not available until all the included Auto Features are successfully measured.
