Setting up Artec Leo is easy and includes the following steps:

Turn On

  1. Take Leo out of the case and place it vertically on a flat rigid surface.

  2. Press the power button button near the screen (see Meet Leo, 3).

  3. If the scanner hasn’t booted up, try plugging it to the power adapter.

Note

When you turn on the Leo scanner later after its activation, you may be prompted to enter a password. This happens if storage encryption has been previously enabled.

Plug In Power Adapter

Select Artec Studio Version

Some new features of Leo may be incompatible with older versions of Artec Studio. To prevent situations where Leo project is not supported by the currently installed version of Artec Studio, Leo will show the modal for selecting the Artec Studio version on the first launch.
