WB4 Assembly Instructions

This section explains the techniques for setting up and using the Cyberware Whole Body Digitizer with a Silicon Graphics workstation to digitize objects. Common applications include computer-aided design, object analysis, and anthropometrics.

Platform Placement

Please read the Site Preparation section of the CyScan User Guide before performing this assembly. Also, you must complete the Software Installation procedure before continuing.

The Whole Body platform is rectangular in shape, with the digitizer heads mounted on vertical arms. Fully assembled, it weighs approximately 500 Kg (1100 lbs). For more information, please consult the Site Preparation section of this User Guide.

WARNING

While Cyberware recommends that the assembly of the Whole Body platform be performed by a factory-trained technician, this guide may be used to aid in the process of installation when a technician is not available. Many of the parts are very heavy and very sensitive; care and proper equipment should be used to put them in place. Many of the parts contain either carefully aligned or sensitive electronic assemblies. Take extreme caution not to damage or jar the systems. It is required that, at least, 4 able-bodied persons are available to assemble this platform effectively. It is assumed that you have read and are familiar with the CyScan User Guide, and have a basic working knowledge of the IRIX operating system.

Required Tools

• M5 Hex Wrench
• M6 Hex Wrench
• Modified M6 Hex Wrench
• Small Flathead Screwdriver

1. Move all crates to the setup location.

2. Locate the case containing the horizontal truss.

3. Remove the top from the case and set it aside.

4. Place the horizontal truss in the center of the assembly area.

5. Locate the platform crate containing the two (2) truss legs. This case also contains the subject platform and the subject platform step.
   1. Remove all of the tie-down straps from the individual pieces.
   2. Remove the subject platform from the crate.
   3. Move the truss legs near to the horizontal truss.
   4. Return the subject platform to the crate.

6. Attach the truss legs to the horizontal truss using eighteen (18) M6 × 25 bolts, lockwashers, and flat washers for each leg. This will require an M5 hex wrench.

Truss Legs

7. Locate the crate that contains the vertical trusses (0 & 1 and 2 & 3). Remove the tops of these cases and set the tops aside.

8. Place a support block under the horizontal truss near the mounting point for vertical truss 2 & 3 so that the horizontal truss will be at the proper height when you install the vertical truss. The support block will keep tension off the mounting bracket bolts.

Support Block

9. Remove Vertical Truss 2 & 3 from the case. If the upper and lower mounting brackets and bolts are on the truss, remove them before installing the vertical truss.

   WARNING: Do not hold or lift the vertical trusses using the grooved lead screw.

10. Position vertical truss 2 & 3 at the end of the horizontal truss that is opposite the side trusses (see labels on horizontal truss).

    NOTE: Vertical truss 2 & 3 MUST be installed first.

Vertical Truss 2 & 3

11. Secure the upper mounting bracket using two (2) M8 × 50 bolts with the M6 wrench and the red ball clamp.

    WARNING: Do not adjust or remove the spherical adjustment screws or the spherical adjustment ball for the upper mounting bracket.

Mounting Bracket

12. Secure the two (2) lower mounting brackets using (2) M8 × 60 bolts, (2) M10 x 50 bolts, and the aqua ball clamp. The standard M6 and M8 wrenches can be used to tighten these bolts.

    WARNING: Do not adjust or remove the spherical adjustment screws or the spherical adjustment balls on the lower mounting brackets.

13. Remove vertical truss 0 & 1 from the shipping crate. If the upper and lower mounting brackets and bolts are on the truss, remove them before installing the vertical truss.

    WARNING: Do not hold or lift the vertical trusses using the grooved lead screw.

14. Position vertical truss 0 & 1 at the end of the horizontal truss that is nearest to the Truss Legs.

Vertical Truss 0 & 1

15. Secure the upper mounting bracket with two (2) M8 × 50 bolts and the red ball clamp using the M6 wrench.

25. Locate the podium control unit case and remove the front and back panels.

26. Move the podium control unit to a location close to the workstation.

27. If you have not done so already, have the System Administrator power down the workstation that will be used to operate the Cyberware Whole Body Scanner.

28. Measure the line voltage in the outlet that you will be using.

29. Set the voltage selector switch on the podium control unit to correspond to the line voltage reading. pins engage.

42. Lower the arms to the Service Position.
    1. Select Scan Setup from the Scan menu.
    2. Press the Move to Service button in the Scan Setup window.

43. Locate the four (4) cases that house the individual scan heads.

44. Remove the covers from the cases and place the covers aside.

    NOTE: The scan heads are very sensitive pieces of equipment. Take great care in all procedures involving them. Do not touch the mirrors or any of the internals of the scan heads.

45. Install the scan heads:
    1. Carefully lift a scan head out of its case, using the black shipping arm.
    2. Place the scan head onto the horizontal arm, in the correct position (i.e. Scan head 0 should be placed on Arm 0 & 1 in the 0 position). There are guide pins on each mounting bracket to ensure that the heads are properly aligned. The scan head should hinge on the guide pins. Slight pressure should be applied towards the mounting arm until all of the mounting bolts are secure.
