Plug in the power cable and the USB cable. The ring-shaped LED is blinking yellow to indicate that the BLK ARC is booting up. When the ring-shaped LED is continuous green, the BLK ARC is ready to start operation with a connected device. Start the scan from the connected device. The ring-shaped LED is blinking yellow and the BLK ARC is initializing. When the ring-shaped LED starts pulsating green, the BLK ARC is initialized and is recording data. The carrier can start moving and the BLK ARC is collecting the data. Stop the scan from the connected device. The ring-shaped LED is blinking yellow while data are being saved. Once data have been saved, the ring-shaped LED is continuous green. 5.2 Description Imaging The BLK ARC can collect two different types of images:
A panoramic image using 3 calibrated panoramic cameras. The panoramic images are automatically taken when the device is in operation. A high resolution image using the detail camera. The high resolution images can be triggered from a connected device. 22 Operation 66REC55443322221123152_001 Camera position a b Detail camera Panoramic camera 5.3 5.3.1 Scanning Ambient Conditions Unfavorable surfaces for scanning Unfavorable weather conditions for scan-
ning Temperature changes during scanning Highly reflective (polished metal, gloss paint) Highly absorbent (black) Translucent (clear glass) Color, powder or tape these surfaces before scanning if necessary. Rain, snow or fog may adversely affect measurement quality. Always use care when scanning in these conditions. Surfaces that are directly illuminated by the sun cause an increased range noise and therefore a larger measurement uncertainty. If some objects are scanned against the sunlight or a bright spotlight, the optical receiver of the instrument can be dazzled so heavily that in this area no measured data is recorded. If the instrument is brought from a cold environment, for example from stor-
age, into a warm and humid environment, the mirror or in extreme cases even the interior optics can condense. This may cause measurement errors. Precaution: Avoid rapid temperature changes and give the instrument time to acclimatize. Dirt on the dome Due to the encapsulated mirror design, the mirror is protected against direct contact. But dirt on the dome such as a layer of dust, condensation or finger-
prints may cause considerable measuring errors. 5.3.2 Troubleshooting Basic troubleshooting Problem Possible cause Suggested remedies Missing points in scan. Dust, debris or finger-
prints on the dome. Use a glass cleaning tis-
sue to clean the specific areas. Operation 23 23153_001bba Troubleshooting in operation mode LED color Instrument status Lighting interval continuous A system error occurred. If status does not change or the problem occurs again, contact the Leica support. Troubleshooting -

It draws in and circulates air to main-
tain the temperature of the system components. The air inlet and the filter cartridge protect from dust particles entering the housing and components. The filter cartridge is removable. Replace the filter cartridge by a new filter periodically. To remove the filter, refer to Filter Changing Procedure and follow the instruc-
tions. The exchanging period depends on the environment where the BLK ARC is mostly used. The more dusty the environment is, the more frequently the filter has to be exchanged. The BLK ARC is not supposed to work in a dusty environment, since the laser measurements suffer a lot from dust refraction. Refer to Ambient Conditions. Operation 25 6 6.1 Care and Transport Maintenance For units that are exposed to high mechanical forces, for example through frequent transport or rough handling, it is recommended to carry out test measurements periodically. Inspect the cables regularly. In case the insulation is damaged, replace the cables immediately. CAUTION Unapproved supply or cables Connecting the supply improperly may cause serious damage to the device. Any damage caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty. Unapproved supply or cables can damage the device. Precautions:
Use only Leica-approved supply and cables. 6.2 Transport Transport in the field When transporting the equipment in the field, always make sure that you carry the product in its original container. Transport in a road vehicle Never carry the product loose in a road vehicle, as it can be affected by shocks and vibrations. Always carry the product in its container and secure it. For products for which no container is available use the original packaging or its equivalent. Shipping 6.3 BLK ARC AC/DC power supply When transporting the product by rail, air or sea, always use the complete original Leica Geosystems packaging, container and cardboard box, or its equi-
valent, to protect against shock and vibration. Storage Respect the temperature limits when storing the equipment, particularly in summer if the equipment is inside a vehicle. Refer to 7 Technical Data for information about temperature limits. Keep AC/DC power supply away from excessive dirt, dust and contamin-
ants After unpacking the product visually inspect the supply for possible dam-
age Unplug the product from the outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning 6.4 Cleaning and Drying Damp products Dry the product, the transport case, the foam inserts and the accessories at a temperature not higher than 40C /104F and clean them. Do not repack until everything is completely dry. Always close the transportation case when using in the field. 26 Care and Transport Housing parts of product and accessories Never touch the dome with your fingers. Only use a clean, soft, lint-free cloth for cleaning. If necessary, moisten the cloth with water or pure alcohol. Do not use other liquids; other liquids may attack the polymer components. AC/DC power supply Use only a clean, soft, lint-free cloth for cleaning. Cables and plugs Keep plugs clean and dry. Blow away any dirt lodged in the plugs of the connecting cables. 6.5 Dome Cleaning Procedure General cleaning information The dome must be kept clean. The instructions must be followed as described in this chapter to clean the dome. Dust and debris on the dome Cleaning of the camera lenses Using a compressed gas duster or canned air, remove dust and debris from surface of the dome. Never rub off dust or debris as this will scratch the glass and so possibly cause permanent damage to the special optical coatings. Soiling of the glass pane can cause extreme measurement errors and there-
fore useless data!
All soiling that is visible on the glass pane has to be removed, except for single small dust particles that adhere inevitably. For the glass cleaning procedure, the wet and dry lens cleaner Green Clean LC-7010 is recommended (www.green-clean.at/en.html). Clean the glass pane regularly with the recommended cleaning tissue:
It is recommended to leave the BLK ARC on a carrier mounted for stability. Avoid handling the BLK ARC in your hands.
Turn off the BLK ARC if you are holding the instrument in your hands. If the BLK ARC is mounted on the carrier, it is not necessary to switch it off. Do not turn the instrument 180 degrees. Washing hands is necessary in order to avoid grease on the cleaning tissue. Better, use gloves to avoid finger oil on the glass. Then use the wet lens cleaning tissue (Green Clean LC-7010) until there is only a thin film of detergent visible. After that use the dry lens cleaning tissue (Green Clean LC-7010) to remove any remaining detergent. If any smears from cleaning are visible against back light, repeat the pro-
cedure. Do not use air from the pneumatic power system as this is always slightly oily!
Care and Transport 27 6.6 Filter Changing Procedure General cleaning information Follow the instructions as described in this chapter to:
Clean the air outlet. Replace the filter element. The ring-shaped LED indicates reaching high temperature of the BLK ARC. If this indication occurs after a few minutes of operation in standard working conditions, it can be necessary to exchange the filters. NOTICE Running the device without filters If the device is used without filters, dust is drawn inside and irretrievably damages inner components. Precautions:
Do not run the device without the filters. Ensure that both filters are inserted correctly. CAUTION Before any cleaning procedure, ensure that the instrument is switched off. 28 Care and Transport Position of air inlet and air outlet Changing the filter of the air inlet step-by-step a Air inlet with filter a Air outlet 1. 2. 3. 4. Loosen the screw. Remove the filter cover with the used filter. The filter cannot be removed from the filter cover as it is one part and has to be exchanged together. Insert a new filter cover with filter in both air inlets. Ensure that both filter covers are inserted correctly. Fasten the screw. Care and Transport 29 23662_001a23663_001a23156_0014411443333222211 Cleaning the air out-
let The air outlet must be cleaned infrequently. Use a small brush to carefully remove dust laying down in the aluminum ribs. Cleaning the air outlet can be done only from the outside. Do not use compressed air to clean the air outlet. If some particles of dust are clearly stuck inside the mesh, do not try to remove the particles. It may force the particles to move further in and damage the mesh. 30 Care and Transport 23672_001 7 7.1 Storage and communication Detail camera Panoramic cameras Technical Data General Technical Data of the Product Function Internal storage Communication Camera data Type Single image Field of view White balancing Minimum range Shutter Camera data Type Single image Field of view White balancing Minimum range Shutter Value 6 hours of scanning (uncompressed data) 24 hours of scanning (compressed data) Integrated 802.11 b/g/n/ac WLAN with MIMO.
