# BLK ARC and BLK2FLY Workflow

The Scan will appear in the SiteMap area as a single Setup with the number of WayPoints determined by the user-defined settings during import.

Each WayPoint contains a panoramic image to support traditional visualization options. The WayPoint locations are listed in the right panel under WayPoints.

Fly into a selected WayPoint from the right-side menu by right-clicking WayPoints and selecting **Jump to WayPoint**.

Scroll through all WayPoints using the up and down arrow keys on the keyboard. The image will change in the right-side panel showing the different WayPoint preview images:

**Export Panoramic Images** will export selected images into a specified folder.

Each WayPoint has the following abilities:

- Fly into the point cloud to view panoramic images and the point cloud.
- Selection in the SiteMap to pan and rotate a scan.
- Selection in the SiteMap area with another Setup to perform registration by:
- Visual Alignment.
- Target matching (with inserted targets).
- Registration to another BLK scanner Setup (e.g., RTC360, BLK360, BLK360 G1, BLK2GO, BLK2FLY, BLK ARC, P-Series, C-Series, 3rd party scans).
- Publish to JetStream Enterprise, LGS file(s), and TruView as Panoramic image Setup location.

## **Visual Registration with BLK ARC Data**

Visual registration with BLK ARC data is performed in the same manner as for any other data imported into Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS. The required steps are as follows:

1. In the SiteMap area, select a single Setup or WayPoint and then multi-select another Setup or WayPoint.

Fence selection will also work to select the desired Setups and WayPoints.
2. Move the Setup and/or Scan into the proximity of another to make suggested links appear.
  1. Select a suggested link to enter the desired registration type.
3. Click the **Visual Alignment** button on the action bar to enter Visual Alignment, then join and optimize.
4. A link will be created with related statistics about error, strength, and overlap.

## **Creating Wall Aligned UCS for BLK Mobile Data**

Upon import of BLK mobile data, in the Import area of Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS, there is a new option called **Create Wall Aligned UCS**.

![blk-5.png](https://cdn.document360.io/820e11db-8ed5-45ae-ac86-f6b77dcb2aa7/Images/Documentation/blk-5.png)

If the check box is selected, Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS will detect the long wall and assign it to the Y axis, then a UCS will be created.
