Sequence Illustration Remark
1. preparation: select the footprint; trace the outline with a black sharpie; place the footprint in the scanner
2. start the GP Manager
3. determining or creating a customer
4. select foot measurement in the Measure menu  fußmessung12
5. define the display range of the digitised image. Button: Left, Right fußmessung13
6. Select module if necessary - here: TrittScan  fußmessung14
 7. button: Scan current view
The dialogue box can be switched off by the GP manager, in which case the scan is carried out with default values. If this is the case, continue with point 10.
Call up the Twain dialogue box. This box can change from
others.
 8. Set parameters:
1) Colour resolution=colour

2) DPI : 100
in the Twain dialogue box
 9. scanning the template (footprint) in the Twain dialogue box
 10. If necessary, draw a rectangle in the digitised image to limit the right or left foot.  Execution - if the foot outline was not recognised.
Drag a rectangle from the top left and bottom right while holding down the left mouse button
 11. button: Limit and 11. must be carried out separately for both zones of the working area  fußmessung15  Deletes everything outside the rectangle
 12. Use the white-grey slider; click to the right or left of the red marker to adjust the threshold value for outline detection (to be carried out separately in both zones).

 

 fußmessung16  Execution - if the foot outline was not recognised.
 13. Possibly correction of the longitudinal axis of the foot  Move the mouse pointer to the toe point of the longitudinal axis (top), then hold down the left mouse button and move the mouse to the right or left. After reaching the correction point, release the buttons.Important:  Waiting for the image to be recalculated
 14. Possibly correction of the outline  Move the mouse pointer to one of the green dots, then hold down the CTRL key and press the left mouse button. Move the mouse pointer. After reaching the correction point, release the keys.Important:  Waiting for the image to be recalculated
 15. setting the dimension lines (bale dimensions etc.) Move the mouse pointer to the end point of the line. Hold down the left mouse button and move the mouse. After reaching the correction point, release the buttons.

Important:  Waiting for the image to be recalculated

 16. enter the manually measured circumference measurements in the measurement table
 17. button: Verticalise the foot axis Removes all parts of the image outside the outline and enlarges the image
 18th result bad New start by Button:
Calibrate; continue with 10.
 fußmessung17  New beginning

Once a measurement has been processed with the GP TrittScan, GP FussScan, LaserScan 3D, GP DvScan, Kinectscan or GP OptiScan modules, the measurements are directly available to the GP CAD module.

fußmessung11

To do this, go to Analyse and confirm the GP CAD selection.

Various expressions can be selected under this menu. Click on "Standard" to print out a current view. Clicking on the "Footprint" button in the Printer menu generates a 1:1 printout on special footprint paper. The settings for such a paper format must of course also be set with the existing printer.

With the 1:1 printouts, the feet can be printed individually and with A3, both feet can be printed on one sheet.

If you select "Standard", you get the following view:

fußmessung10

It is now also possible to save the current view as a PDF.

Note:
Entries that are stored in Info are also printed at the bottom of the paper.

Removes all images that were required to calculate the foot outline.

Attention!!! Processing again (i.e. a reset by clicking on Calibrate) is no longer possible. possible!!!

All unnecessary information outside the outline is cut off, the measurement is enlarged and aligned with the previously vertical foot axis. This ensures a clean display when superimposed on the inlay or moulding in GP CAD.

After the automatic calculation of the foot outline, further dimension lines (circumference lines) are displayed. Depending on the settings in the configuration file, the small toe, ball of the foot, toe-in, chip and waist lines and the foot axis are displayed. You can check the locations of the circumference lines and correct them if necessary by clicking on the crosses with the left mouse button pressed.

Then enter the values manually in the programme's measurement box.

Attention:
Setting the above lines is important as they form the basis for adapting to the perimeter dimensions of the moulding when it is transferred to GP OptiCAD. Please also read the chapters on dimensions and fixing in GP OptiCAD. It is also important to place the foot axis, as the moulding will be aligned with the foot axis of the footprint after transfer to GP OptiCAD.

Move the mouse pointer to the toe point of the longitudinal axis (top), then hold down the left mouse button and move the mouse to the right or left. Once you have reached the correction point, release the buttons.

Important:
Please wait for the image to be recalculated.

The outline can be changed by moving the green dots. To do this, move the mouse pointer to one of the green dots, then press the CTRL key and the left mouse button simultaneously. Now move the mouse pointer. Once you have reached the correction point, release the buttons.

Important:
Please wait for the recalculation of the outline.

If the outline is not recognised, you can change the binary threshold value for outline recognition here. To do this, enter a new value after Binary.

The threshold value setting works faster using the white/grey slider. To do this, click on a position within the bar (to the right or left of the vertical red marker), the effect of the new setting is displayed directly on the screen.

If the outline is not recognised, you can hold down the left mouse button and drag a rectangle from the top left to the bottom right around the area that was not recognised. Then click on Delimit. Everything outside the rectangle is now deleted and the outline calculation is restarted.
