Conversion of RTC360 / BLK360 scan data to TruView Local, LGS, PTX, PTG, and E57 formats

Steps​

1. Basic Workflow Overview​

  1. Import
  2. Review and Optimize
  3. Finalize
  4. Report and Export

2. Launch the Cyclone REGISTER 360 application.​

3. Click the Files menu located in the top-left corner.​

4. Open an existing project or click Create New Project.​

Enter a project name and click OK.

5. System Resource Recommendation​

For projects with more than 40 setups, a system configuration with more than 32 GB RAM is recommended.
Alternatively, stop unnecessary background services and tasks via Task Manager to maintain:

  • Around 30% memory usage
  • 10–15% CPU usage

6. Folder Structure for Scan Import​

Maintain a proper folder structure for scan data before importing.

Each scan folder should include:

  • Cubemap files
  • Scan files
  • Image files
  • Thumbnail files
  • Setup position files

Structure:

  • Scan files folder + RTC360 file

7. Import Scan Files​

Click Browse Files or use Drag and Drop.

Note:

  • For drag-and-drop, select both the Scan files folder and the RTC360 file.
  • For browsing, select only the RTC360 file.

8. Select the .rtc360 file and click OK.​

9. The system will display a loading progress while processing the files.​

10. Click Import located at the bottom-right corner.​

11. Import Duration​

Import time depends on the number of scans and scan resolution.

  • Example:
    • 4 scans (~6 GB): 20–25 minutes
    • 40 scans: Approximately 18 hours

12. Review and Optimize​

Proceed to the Review and Optimize stage.

13. Create a SiteMap​

  • Move all setups into a single SiteMap.
  • If scan strength is weak, adjust the strength above 50%.
  • If acceptable strength cannot be achieved, delete unnecessary links or setups.
  • Ensure overlap and strength between scan stations are in green status.
  • All link strengths should be greater than 50%.

15. Visual Alignment​

If any link strength or overlap appears in red or yellow, perform Visual Alignment.

16. Verify Setup Cloud View​

Check overlap and alignment of all scan links in the setup cloud view.

17. Perform Visual Alignment​

Use Top View and Side View:

  • Align the blue layout over the orange layout.
  • Use left-click and drag for reference alignment.

Top View:

Side View:

18. Join and Optimize​

Click Join & Optimize after alignment.

Note:
Record the overlap percentage (including decimals). Even small decimal changes can significantly improve link strength.

20. Bundle Alignment​

  • Link all scan stations into a single bundle.
  • Move bundles closer by dragging setups.
  • Hold Shift to rotate bundles and create links.

21. Align Multiple Bundles​

  • Use rectangle, circular, or polygon linking tools.
  • Visual alignment is supported only between two bundles at a time.

22. Capture Screenshots for Reporting​

Capture screenshots of:

  • SiteMap
  • Bundle Cloud
  • TruSlicer

These can be included in the PDF report.

23. Capture Screen Asset​

Click Capture Screen and enter an Asset Name.

24. Finalize Registration​

If all links are valid, click Finalize.

25. Accept Registration​

  • Click the Accept button (small font) at the bottom-right.
  • Click Accept again when prompted.

26. Reporting and Export​

Generate reports and export files in required formats.

27. Publishing Options​

Click Publish Options on the right panel to view export formats.

28. Select Export Format​

Click the three dots next to each format to configure publishing options.

29. Publishing Outputs​

The registration report is always generated as a PDF.
Optional publishing formats include:

  • TruView Local / Enterprise
  • TruView Cloud
  • JetStream Local / Enterprise
  • LGS
  • E57

(Subject to available licenses and subscriptions.)

30. Review Publishing Summary​

31. Publish Outputs​

Select all required outputs and click the large red Publish button to perform batch publishing.

32. Output Completion​

All published outputs will be generated and saved to the user-defined location.
