Vivid910-hard-E.book Page 28 Monday, October 18, 2004 3:11 PM Replacing the Lens and Field Calibration With the VIVID 9i, three types of lens are available: WIDE lens, MIDDLE lens and TELE lens. Be sure to mount the lens that best matches the subject’s size and distance. Before taking scans of a subject, most suitable lens for the size of the object and distance must be used. Note After changing the lens, you need to recalibrate using the field calibration system. For Field Calibration, refer to page 32.
Vivid910-hard-E.book Page 29 Monday, October 18, 2004 3:11 PM Replacing the Lens and Field Calibration Replacing Procedure You can use the status information to see what type of lens is currently attached. The lens type is also written on the lens itself. The explanation below assume that the power to the digitizer is ON, but note that it is also possible to change the lens while the power is OFF. If the power is OFF, however, you cannot use the digitizer’s viewfinder or control keys. Ref.

Vivid910-hard-E.book Page 32 Monday, October 18, 2004 3:11 PM Field Calibration The field calibration on this unit is done using the Field Calibration System. Periodic field calibration is recommended to maintain measurement precision. Note • Always carry out field calibration when changing lenses. • The Field Calibration System that corresponds to the type of lens the unit is equipped with must be used when conducting field calibration.
Vivid910-hard-E.book Page 33 Monday, October 18, 2004 3:11 PM Field Calibration • Installation Space A secure installation location that meets the dimensional requirements as shown in the drawing below is necessary to install the Field Calibration System. Before using the Field Calibration System, a “Calibration Area” for stable and high quality calibration is required, in addition to the place that is necessary to position the Field Calibration System. Approx. 73 cm Installation Space Approx.
Vivid910-hard-E.book Page 34 Monday, October 18, 2004 3:11 PM Field Calibration Executing Field Calibration The Field Calibration System is made up of the Field Calibration System Section and the Frame Section. It is necessary to assemble it when it is to be used for the first time or after it has been temporarily disassembled to move the Field Calibration System, etc. In addition, it is necessary to attach the Field Calibration System to the main unit in order to carry out field calibration.

If you are using field calibration results to measure the dimensions of the field calibration system, the software shows the differences from the measurements made at time of shipping. Differences are shown for four places: X1, Y1, X2, and Y2. • If field calibration was not successful, one of the following messages appears. Proceed in accordance with the displayed message.
Vivid910-hard-E.book Page 40 Monday, October 18, 2004 3:11 PM Field Calibration Ending Field Calibration After the field calibration is finished, remove the unit from the Field Calibration System. Also close the Field Calibration System that was used and return it to its original condition. [Procedure] 1 Remove the unit from the Attachment Section of the main unit. 2 Close the Field Calibration System.
Vivid910-hard-E.book Page 41 Monday, October 18, 2004 3:11 PM Field Calibration Disassembling the Field Calibration System In cases where the Field Calibration System needs to be disassembled to move or transport it or for reasons related to its installation space, separate the Field Calibration System into the Field Calibration System Unit and the Frame sections. Note Do not disassemble any sections that are not covered in this document. Doing so may lead to a reduction in precision.

Vivid910-hard-E.book Page 48 Monday, October 18, 2004 3:11 PM Error Messages The following error messages appear if incorrect operation is performed or an abnormality occurs with the VIVID 9i. If an error message appears, take the appropriate corrective actions as shown in the table below. If the problem still does not disappear, contact a KONICA MINOLTA SENSING authorized service facility.
Vivid910-hard-E.book Page 49 Monday, October 18, 2004 3:11 PM Explanation of Measuring Principle Measuring Principle The VIVID 9i uses the light-stripe method to emit a horizontal stripe light through a cylindrical lens to the object. The reflected light from the object is received by the CCD, and then converted by triangulation into distance information. This process is repeated by scanning the stripe light vertically on the object surface using a Galvano mirror, to obtain a 3D image data of the object.
Vivid910-hard-E.book Page 50 Monday, October 18, 2004 3:11 PM Explanation of Measuring Principle High-Speed Image Processing Circuit The stripe light is scanned on the CCD image plane at one horizontal line per frame, and the CCD is driven so that the block readout start position is shifted one line per frame. Approximately 600 frames are acquired. · CCD drive rate: 12.5MHz · Block readout: 125 lines · Data acquisition speed: 2.5 sec.
