FARO Arm Error Messagess

This is a dialog from the FARO driver - not VTube-LASER.

This problem can indicate a failure in the arm's electronics, the scanner itself, a problem with the driver, or a problem with the USB communications on the Windows computer.

Follow the steps below to fix the error:

1 Switch the FARO cable to a different USB port.

2 If that fails, then uninstall and reinstall the driver.

FARO Arm Drivers

3 Try another computer to try to rule out computer port failure.

4 If all of that fails, then call FARO for repair.
