=== NeoScan Mapping Utility Program ===
[[NeoScan]] Mapping Utility program is the central command center used in the 2D field scan application. The program creates the project folder, sets the appropriate parameters for lock-in amplifier, controls translation stage, including the speed setting and 2D movement settings, and scanning of an electric field. [[NeoScan]] Mapping Utility interface includes five pages:
<ul><li><p> <i><b>Project Settings Page: </b></i> Creates the project folder, sets the operating frequency and the calibration factor; </p></li><li><p> <i><b>Hardware Settings Page: </b></i> Sets the translation stage parameters including the location of the origin (scan starting point) and speed of the stage, as well as lock-in amplifier parameters;</p></li><li><p> <i><b>Height Settings Page: </b></i> Sets the Probe Height and estimates the optimal antenna scan parameters for far field pattern measurements;</p></li><li><p> <i><b>Scan Settings Page: </b></i> Sets scan parameters, including the number of scan points and the step size;</p></li><li><p> <i><b>Scan Control Page: </b></i> Scans a 2D field and display real-time near field maps. </p></li></ul>
To open [[NeoScan]] Mapping Utility program double-clicking on NeoScanMAP icon on desktop Windows Explorer. By default, [[NeoScan]] Mapping Manager program opens up with “Project Settings” page (Figure 4.3).
