General

The General settings window allows for configuring settings such as the device file of the temperature sensor as well as the modes for the I/O ports. In most cases, users should not alter any of the parameters in the General section unless instructed to do so by Phoenix LiDAR Systems.

License

License key

Every system is configured and associated with a unique alphanumeric key. Editing license keys is disabled by default in Spatial Explorer - if you need assistance with licensing issues, please contact [e-mail]

AutoStart/AutoScan

The AutoStart/AutoScan option will determine how camera or LiDAR sensors are activated.

System Startup

Determines when rover will launch:

• Off: rover starts once SpatialExplorer connects

• Immediate: rover starts immediately after power up

Recording Camera / LiDAR data

Determines when the sensors (LiDAR/camera) will be activated.

• Manual: recording sensor data is controlled manually through SpatialExplorer

• Delayed: recording sensor data will start 5 minutes after GNSS reception is established

• Once Moving: recording sensor data will start once rover starts moving, then continues until shutdown

• Whenever Moving: recording Camera/LiDAR is active as long as rover moves

Devices and I/O Ports

Settings for devices and I/O ports are not user-configurable in Spatial Explorer. Contact [e-mail] for assistance.

Devices, I/O Ports, and Minimum LiDAR Point Distance

Minimum LiDAR Point Distance

This is the minimum distance between each displayed point. In most cases, we recommend setting this value to ~0.50 m or to avoid any bandwidth/latency issues on the computer running SpatialExplorer.
