how do I do a simple scan?

I am an experienced programmer but never used a scanning head, I currently got employed by a company with a nice scanning head and want to scan this big gear insert for profile but I am having a hard time figuring this out. I kind of thought it would be as simple as selecting the cad area to be scanned and clicking create but its proving to be not that easy... unless I am missing something, which I am sure I am...

Any scanning wizards out there?

  • The concept of a liner open scan is first hit is your start point, second hit direction, 3rd hit end point. Click generate scan and voila. Closed scan you only jave start and direction point. Patch scan you select a bunch of points and it follows the points. Make sure you select generate scan before executing
