Scanning Non-engaging Locators without a Reference Jig

Prerequisite

Scanner must be set-up for locator scanning.

The Setting-up the Scanner for Procera® Implant Bridge Scanning step must be completed.

Steps

  1. In the Camera View, align the blue numbered circles over their corresponding non-engaging locators.
    Note:

    Numbered circles must each fully cover their locator. Set a numbered circle over each implant, even if you did not have enough locators.

  2. Right-click the numbered circles that do not have any locator, this will disable them i.e. they will not be scanned.
    Note:

    Enabled circles are blue. Disabled circles are transparent.

    Note: An interactive dialog will prompt the user to check the locators that will be scanned in the next pass. This dialog will appear between scans until all locators are scanned.
  3. Click Scan.
  4. Follow displayed instructions.
  5. If you had enough non-engaging locators for all implants go to the next step otherwise, continue to sub-step a.
    1. Right-click the disabled circles to enable them.
      Note:

      It is crucial that the model and table are not moved at all during the following steps in order to maintain the same spatial relationship between the different scan groups of locators.

    2. Remove the non-engaging locators from the positions already scanned, and place them on the implants that did not have any locators.
    3. Click Scan.
    4. Click No otherwise all of your previous position locator scans will be deleted.
    5. Follow displayed instructions.

Result

The non-engaging locators are displayed in the Scan View.
