| | | | |
| − | If the machine ever needs to be re-installed -- then know that using the cmd-alt-R recovery method will bring it back to a rather old version of OSX (Mountain Lion). Which is too old for a `decent' version of Skanect.
| + | See [3D Scanner - installation notes] for more information. |
| − | | |
| − | So you will have to upgrade to High Sierra (the max for this class of hardware).
| |
| − | | |
| − | To upgrade it from that point - you have three options - none overly attractive:
| |
| − | | |
| − | # Find someone who has a AppStore account that is that old - and which has gone through all these OS upgrades in the past. That person will have the required installs in his or her `Purchased' set. Note that you cannot go straight to High Sierra- you need one stepping stones (such as El Captain) as you are just outside the '8 year' jump range.
| |
| − | # Follow the instructions on https://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/mac-software/download-old-os-x-3629363/
| |
| − | # Make a USB bootable USB disk. Either by following apples instructions or using http://dosdude1.com/highsierra/. The USB stick needs to be 8Gbyte or bigger.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In all cases - if you get a 'OS X could not be installed on your computer. No packages were eligible for install' erorr - then, in that same, screen, select the Terminal option under tools/utilities - and set the date to some date in 2015 using the `date(1)' command.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Once the install is done - force the time to be correct (the startup may be very slow if you leave the network connected) -- as it will otherwise hang/timeout/bomb on all SSL requests.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Older versions of OSX can given you the wrong `NTP time server setting' - so if that seems to be the case - use `nl.pool.ntp.org' in the System Preferences -> Date and Time -> Automatic.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Once this is done - the following configs were done:
| |
| − | | |
| − | # No cloud/etc accounts, disable metrics/error report sending.
| |
| − | # Username for admin is currently mslmacmini
| |
| − | # Disable wifi, set DHCP on wired, set sensible clientid for dhcp (macmini-for-3d)
| |
| − | # Enable guest, and login without password into guest.
| |
| − | # Enable screen lock for admin and auto log out after 5 hours so admin cannot hog the screen by accident.
| |
| − | # All updates automatic
| |
| − | # Enable wake up at 2 am at least once a week to enforce update fetching.
| |
| − | # Auto off after 1 hour (skanekt runs can be slow)
| |
| − | # Install skanect
| |
| − | # Enable SSH and VNC
| |
| − | # Install Xcode 10.3 (last version for High Sierra), macports and then inkscape
| |
| − | # Install skanect and/or RTAB-Map according to instructions. No drivers needed for the kinekt

Work in progress
We have a 3D scanner based on a Microsoft XBox Kinekt device, the [Skanect] software and a Mac Mini.
Instructions for use
- Log in as Guest
- Start the Scanect Software
- Configure for a BOX scan (1x1 is about righ).
- Go through each of the steps.
- Save the resulting file (PLY) to a USB disk or SD card (slot is on the back, left hand side)
Reinstall from 'zero'
See [3D Scanner - installation notes] for more information.
