FARO Scene Exporting

Post by MGeorgie »

I have been trying to export a cluster filled with 84 scans in it and i fear it has been frozen while exporting. It has been 5 hours and i have made little progress. How can I tell if it has crashed? I need help.

Which format are you exporting to?

I have heard longer exporting times, and when SCENE crashes, then it actually crashes(crash report pops up etc...); is your PC fully frozen? you can observe some process maybe through your task bar.

It crashed. Just restart your Scene. You should try with .fls, it is the best format you can export from Scene. It should take about 1-4 sec per scans.

If it doesnt work your project might be acting weird. One trick I do for those situation is create a whole new scene project and import the lsproj in there. Save. Export fls files.

If it doesnt work try loading all scans see if one of then gives you and error. Right click the cluster load all scans. Delete that scan and re import it from originals.

Sometime loading scans doesnt give you the error, manually open them all to see if one of them gives you an error.

Do you have enough space in your export folder?

Hope this helps :)

Some of Scenes's export code is extremely slow, particularly if you are saving to a network share. Can you look at the output file(s) and see if its size is changing? That would be a good indication of whether or not data is still being written.

I can't say I can remember Scene ever crashing or hanging during an export, but that doesn't mean it doesn't.
