Page 26 Manual

B.5 Device Location

The installation location must have — a minimum distance of not less than 150 mm (6 inch) between the sides of the
scanner and the wall,
— a minimum distance of not less than 300 mm (12 inch) between the backside of th e
scanner and the wall,
— a minimum distance of not less than one meter (3 feet) from any door or entrance
way and the scanner.
Use illustration below as a guide.
Picture 10: Minimum distances to the scanner
Do not operate the scanner in an area that has poor air circulation, and/or that is non­ventilated.
Place the scanner on a flat and solid base. The load bearing capacity of the base must correspond to the device weight.
It is recommended to place the scanner always on the floor stand which comes with the scanner. The floor stand gives the best ergonomic position when using the scanner.
Choose a location that complies with the limits of temperature and humidity. Refer to the technical specification, chapter G.3.
Note: Before using the scanner in the new environment allow at least one hour for
temperature adaptation. Temperature adaptation means:
A fast change from cold to warm environmental conditions can build up condensation inside the housing. This will result in unfavorable scanned images and could cause permanent damages to the unit.
Manual Page 27

B.6 Maintenance

Important: Ensure that no liquids will penetrate into the device housing.

B.6.1 Touchscreen

Before cleaning the touchscreen, switch the scanner off and set the main power switch to position 0.
The touchscreen can be cleaned with a micro fiber cloth.

B.6.2 Surfaces

Use a soft, dampened cloth to clean the housing of the scanner. Recommended is a micro fiber cloth.

B.6.3 Camera Modules Glass Plates

Important: Do not use any cleanser with solvents to clean the glass plates!
The camera module glass plates have a special surface coating. It is recommended to clean the glass plates always with a micro fiber cloth. Dampen the micro fiber cloth slightly before cleaning. Clean the glass plates with minimum pressure. Do not rub the glass plates on isolated
positions. After cleaning, dry the glass plate with a soft cloth – micro fiber cloth recommended.

B.7 Repair

Note: There are not any parts or components of the WideTEK® 36C /
WideTEK® 48C scanner which can be repaired by the user.
All repairs and service works should be done by a trained technician only.
Page 28 Manual

C Touchscreen Operation

The WideTEK® scanners can be controlled in two ways.
Via the integrated touchscreen and its applications. The functions of the applications available from the touchscreen are described

Via a standard browser and the integrated ScanWizard Web user interface. A short
introduction of the functions of the integrated ScanWizard user interface starts in chapter D.
Please note: All screenshots are taken from a fully equipped device with all options
and functions activated. Depending on the selected mode, the menus displayed on the screen can vary.

Values close to 0% or to 100% may result in unwanted artifacts. Touch the slider and move it to the desired position to set the value. Otherwise touch the buttons + (plus) or – (minus) to modify the value.
C.2.3.2 Contrast
The Contrast slider defines the contrast in the image. Lower contrast values result in “smoother” images; higher values show more details and the images become “crisper”.
Values close to 0% or to 100% may result in unwanted artifacts. Touch the slider and move it to the desired position to set the value. Otherwise touch the buttons + (plus) or – (minus) to modify the value.
C.2.3.3 Image Sharpness
The Image Sharpness slider invokes an advanced automatic sharpening algorithm which sharpens the image before any other operation is performed.
