Scanning Objects with Plain Surfaces

For scanning objects with plain surfaces, refer to the video
tutorial for using Marker stickers. Scan the QR code provided in

Software Download
To use your Revopoint RANGE 3D Scanner, you must download the Revo Scan software. It can be found on Revopoint’s website for Windows and macOS systems, and for Android or iOS smartphones, it can be found by searching for “Revo Scan” in the Google Play or Apple App Store.
For the detailed functions of Revo Scan, please refer to the how-to-use guide in Revo Scan.
Scanning Dark, Transparent, or Reflective Objects
Like most 3D scanners, the RANGE will struggle to scan transparent, reflective, or black objects without first treating the object’s surface with scanning spray, baby powder, or dry shampoo.
Scanning Objects with Plain Surfaces
Scanning objects with simple geometric features, like a football or wine bottle, requires using Marker stickers or marker points and scanning in Marker Mode. 1. Place the Marker stickers on the objects’ surface irregularly and ensure that there are at least 5 Marker stickers in the frame for the entire scan, or the scanner will lose track. 2. Alternatively, reference objects (these are any objects with distinct features that can be easily tracked) can be used. Place 1 to 3 reference objects around the item you are scanning for the 3D scanner to track. If doing this, you can use the scanner in Feature tracking mode for the scan.

Safety Maintenance Instructions
1. Small parts, such as markers, are dangerous if swallowed. Keep all components out of reach of children and animals to avoid serioud injury to them.
2. Store the scanner and all accessories in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
3. Do not allow the scanner to come into contact with or become immersed in water or other liquids. If it gets wet, wipe them dry with a soft, absorbent cloth. Operating a scanner that has fallen in water may cause permanent component damage.
4. Keep the cameras (the two IR cameras, one RGB camera and a projector) clean. Use 95% isopropyl alcohol and a soft cloth to clean them.
5. Handle the scanner with care to avoid hitting the cameras.
6. The operating temperature range of this product is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
7. Do not take apart the scanner. If there are any problems or questions, contact the Revopoint customer service team at customer@revopoint3d.com.
Troubleshooting
1. What to do if you get a “check internet connection” error when trying to download a firmware update? Check your device’s Firewall Settings and confirm Revo Scan is not
©2023 REVOPOINT 3D ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 15

RANGE Quick Start Guide being blocked or the Firewall is off. Try to open api.infly3d.com in a web browser. If you can access this website, it means Revopoint’s server is working correctly.
2. What to do if my RANGE turns on but its LED never turns solid green, indicating that it’s ready to connect? Connect your RANGE to a power source, then press the RANGE’s Start/Pause scan button ten times to reset the RANGE. If that doesn’t resolve the issue, please get in touch with customer support.
3. What to do if the RANGE always loses tracking when scanning? Try using scanner spray, dry shampoo, or baby powder to lightly coat any shiny or dark surfaces on the object. If the object has plain surfaces, you’ll need to place Marker stickers (place them irregularly and ensure that at least five will always be in the frame when you’re scanning) and select Marker mode for the scan. Ensure your model has no deep shadows and is evenly lit with a soft light.
4. What to do if the object you want to scan isn’t clear in the preview window? Increase the brightness in Revo Scan till the object looks clearly defined and has as few red and blue patches in the preview window as possible.
5. What to do if your scanned model’s surfaces lack detail or the details are smeared? Unfortunately, you’ll need to redo the scan, but be careful and ensure you only scan an area once rather than multiple times. Basically, the smaller the number of frames, the better the scan quality. Scanning the same spot twice will only lower the detail.
6. What to do if you keep running out of memory when scanning?
16 ©2023 REVOPOINT 3D ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

RANGE Quick Start Guide The object you’re scanning is too large for your computer or smartphone’s amount of RAM. If this happens, pause the scan, fuse the model, and start a new scan from where you had to pause your previous scan. These separate scans can be merged together in Revo Studio to make a whole model once you’ve finished scanning the object. 7. How do I reset the scanner? Connect your RANGE to a power source, then press the RANGE’s Start/Pause scan button ten times to reset the RANGE.
