Setting up the Scanner
Environmental Requirements
Set up the scanner in a location that fulfils the following requirements:
•Keep the scanner away from sources of heat, such as direct sunlight or a radiator. Warm temperatures will degrade the quality of your scans - for best results, work in a cool environment.
•The scanner must be operated away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Although the scanner complies with all regulations governing electromagnetic immunity and Hasselblad has taken every reasonable step to make the unit immune to electromagnetic interference, it is still a precision electronic device so strong radio waves can interfere with your scans.
•The surface on which the scanner is placed must be stable and free from vibrations. If the scanner is shaken or moved while scanning, your results may be affected.
•If the scanner has been in a colder environment (e.g. outside or in storage) just before you set it up in a warmer room, then wait about two hours before using it - otherwise, condensation may form, which will prevent the scanner from operating correctly.
•Avoid using the scanner in areas where there is a high level of dust.
Electrical Requirements
The Flextight 848 power supply requires a mains voltage of between 100 and 240 V AC at a frequency of 50 to 60 Hz. This is within the normal
The scanner and all devices attached to the scanner (computer, monitor, FireWire devices, etc.) must be grounded (i.e. use a
Note that the power supply may emit a low hissing sound when plugged in but not connected to the scanner. This is normal and will not damage the power supply or scanner.
