System Requirements
IPC
The IPC running LumiScan VGR Engineering requires:
-
Windows 11
-
An NVIDIA GPU that supports CUDA 11.8
-
CUDA Toolkit 11.8
-
cuDNN 8.8.1
The required CUDA and cuDNN installers are provided by HD Vision Systems. Install them before LumiScan VGR Engineering (see Installation).
| These are the same requirements as for LumiScan VGR, so a configuration can be built on the production IPC itself or on a separate engineering PC that meets them. |
Camera
To show the camera preview, LumiScan VGR Engineering needs a LumiScanX or other compatible camera connected to the IPC via Ethernet. Without a camera the configuration can still be edited, saved and exported, but the image and point cloud previews stay empty.
Before installing and operating LumiScan VGR Engineering, make sure that the camera network is configured correctly, and check the Windows Firewall and virus protection settings. The required network, firewall and virus protection settings are described in the LumiScan X manual or, for other cameras, in the manual provided by the camera manufacturer.
Licence
How LumiScan VGR Engineering is licensed depends on where you bought it and where it runs:
| Bought from | Runs on | Licensing |
|---|---|---|
HD Vision Systems |
Windows 11 |
The licence is held on your LumiScan Key. It is an annual subscription and must be renewed every year; the renewal requires a valid subscription. |
ctrlX Store |
Windows 11 |
The licence is held in ctrlX WORKS. The LumiScan Key is required in addition; it protects the software against reverse engineering. |
Each device on which LumiScan VGR Engineering runs at the same time needs its own LumiScan Key. Keys can be exchanged between devices.
How to install CodeMeter Runtime and how to request, renew and move licences is described in LumiScan Licensing.
