Field of view

- [Instructor] To adjust the field of view, we go to the parameters page and choose horizontal and vertical. This will pull in a preview of the last scan made. Now if you're actually looking at the device, if you change these areas, you'll see them highlighted on the screen, but that doesn't come through on this web interface. So these are measurements in degrees, and if we want to have the entire horizontal area, we would go from zero to 360. This is measured from the zero point on the scanner, which is where the power supply plugs in. So we can make some estimations in the field and then adjust them as needed using this preview.
