Performing One Scan with the VIVID 300

This command is used to cause the VIVID 300 (VI-300) to scan the object one scan at a time using the remote control function of this software.

Warning

Never stare into the laser emitting window.

Do not place a lens, mirror or optical element in the passage of the laser beam. Doing so may converge the laser beam, resulting in damage to your eyes, burns or fire. To prevent the above accidents, make sure that a wall or similar which can block the laser beam is located behind the object.
