A scan of the top production threshold at a future electron-positron collider\nprovides the possibility for a precise measurement of the top quark mass in\ntheoretically well-defined mass schemes. With statistical uncertainties of 20\nMeV or below, systematics will likely dominate the total uncertainty of the\nmeasurement. This contribution presents a first look at the impact of the\nrenormalization scale uncertainties in recent NNNLO calculations of the top\npair production cross section in the threshold region on the measurement of the\ntop quark mass at the International Linear Collider.\n
