How do I Find Survey Settings?
To access the Survey settings you will first need to be connected to a camera through the PLANIX App. Once connected you can go into Survey and in the top right corner you will find the hamburger menu. Once pressed you will see an option called "Settings".
Survey Setting Overview
Coverage Opacity
Coverage allows users to assess how well a space has been documented by using shading to indicate the number of completed scans, ensuring area coverage leads to an improved tour. A blue shading on the lidar data will show this. If the slider is moved to the right, the shading will be darker, and if the slider is moved to the left, it will remove the shading.
Show Live Lidar Data
This option lets you view the lidar data before capturing the Pano.
Quiet Mode
Enabling this mode will prevent the camera from making beep sounds when a scan is captured.
Units
You can select your preferred unit of measurement, either inches or centimeters. This is typically used for entering the exterior or perimeter wall thickness.
Wi-Fi Band
Choose between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz for Wi-Fi connectivity. While 5 GHz is generally recommended for better performance, 2.4 GHz may work better where distance is required.
Region
Adjust your region settings as necessary.
Access Point Name
You can change the name of your device.
Wi-Fi Password
You can update your device’s password for enhanced security.
Power Off Timeout
Configure the power timeout settings to extend battery life when no connection is established.
Power Saving Mode
Activate this mode to conserve battery when the camera is inactive.
Auto Align
This option should always be enabled. We also recommend enabling Alignment Alerts, which will notify you of any alignment issues, allowing for efficient project shooting without manual adjustments.
Reset to Factory Settings (Only available on the PLANIX Pro):
This option restores your camera to its original factory settings. This can be helpful if you experience persistent issues or want to start fresh with your configurations. Please note that resetting to factory settings will erase all custom settings.
Important Notes
- At the bottom of the Survey Settings section you will also find your camera's current firmware version, your device's serial number, the 360 camera model number, the 360 camera version, and the 360 camera serial number.
- On the PLANIX Pro you will also find the HDR settings in the Survey Settings section.
