FAQ
-----------------------

Q: How do I turn the scanner on?
A: Press the power button on either the scanner or the HUD. Consult the INTERFACE GUIDE diagram

Q: What is the difference between AGENT and ACTIVE modes?
A: AGENT will detect only avatars, whereas ACTIVE will detect both avatars and active objects (ie. scripted or physical objects)

Q: Why do I see less detected dots on the scanner than the actual number of avatars nearby?
A: The scanner will display up to 6 closest avatar/objects (depending on the mode) within a 90 degree cone in front of you

Q: Do I need to wear the HUD to use the scanner?
A: No. The HUD is optional. You can change all of the available settings with the buttons on the scanner itself. However, the HUD does make it easier to press the buttons without needing to cam in onto the scanner each time.

Q: Can I use just the HUD without the scanner?
A: No. While the scanner is fully operational without requiring the HUD, you must be holding the scanner for the HUD to function. No magical scanner glued to your face here (unless you actually wear the scanner on your face, but eh?)

Q: Why do I still see parts of the display on the scanner or HUD after turning them off?
A: Sometimes sim lag can cause an incomplete power down, simply turn the scanner on and off again should fix the issue.
