Information about RDS Versions and HEXAGON scanner versions

• Back to VTube-LASER

“RS” refers to “ROMER Scanner”

1. The RS1 scanner requires RDS 4.0 or 4.1 – but not newer.
2. RDS 4.2.0 or newer should be used for scanner versions RS2, RS3, RS4, and RS5
3. RDS 4.2.1 is tested and works well.
4. RDS 4.2.2 is tested and works well.
5. RDS 4.2.3 is tested and works well.
6. RDS 5.0.0 is tested and works well. This version is required for 8-series of the HEXAGON Absolute Arms.
7. RDS 5.2.0 is tested and works well.
8. RDS 5.3.0 is tested and works well. Download from our support site
9. RDS 6.2.0 is tested and works well. [https://www.advancedtubularsupport.com/hexagon-absolute-arm-drivers.html Download from our support

This scanner is for the RA8 7-axis arms only. It is very good for parts that are highly reflective or change reflectivity on different parts of the surface. The SHINE technology takes three different exposures of each laser stripe in order to properly take in data from surfaces that have different reflectivity along the stripe.

This is for RA8 7-axis Portable Arms. It is best for parts that have consistent surface reflectivity properties along the entire part because the camera chooses a single exposure for each stripe.

• RA7 7-axis Portable Arms

• CMS108 Scanners

• HP-L-20.8
  
  
• RA7 and RA8 Portable Arms with HP-L-8.9 scanners
  
  This scanner is for attachment of a scanner on the same arms that use Tube Shaper software. See the ROMER HP-L-8.9 website
  
  
• For use on 6 axis arms.

• Leica Absolute Scanner for Long Distances
• The LR model can measure a 10 meter volume.
• The MR model can measure a 20 meter volume.

All ball probe systems on devices that run through RDS are compatible with VTube-LASER.

RDS 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 work well. v4.2.2 has anti-outlier (anti-flyer) algorithms for highly reflective surfaces.

We do not recommend RDS 4.2.3 because it has an issue that causes it to unload regularly, and it is very sluggish compared to the earlier versions.
