How to reset your calibrations in ROCK Desktop

If something goes wrong in your calibration, you can start over by following these steps.

In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of clearing previous calibrations from your computer using ROCK Desktop. Clearing previous calibrations can be useful when you want to start fresh or resolve any calibration issues. Please note that this tutorial is specific to the ROCK Desktop application and assumes you have it installed on your computer.

Locate the Configuration Files

  1. Open File Explorer on your computer.
  2. Navigate to the AppData folder. You can do this by entering "%appdata%" (without quotes) in the File Explorer address bar and pressing Enter.
  3. In the AppData folder, locate and open the "Rock Desktop" folder.
  4. Within the Rock Desktop folder, you will find a "config" subfolder. Open it.
  5. Inside the "config" folder, you will see a folder named "sensors". Open this folder.

Identify  and Delete the Sensor Configuration Files

  1. Within the "sensors" folder, you will find a list of configuration files associated with the sensor. These files are usually in a JSON format and will likely have a naming convention related to the sensor's serial number or model. 
  2. Right-click on the selected file(s) and choose "Delete" or a "Trash" icon from the pop-up menu. Confirm the deletion when prompted.

Retry the calibration

Once you have deleted your calibrations, you will need to use ROCK Desktop to calibrate you ROCK LiDAR unit.
