Communication Tool
The Communication Tool is a tool for conveyor tracking applications. The purpose of the Com-
munication Tool is to provide instructions to the controller for handling parts that must be
picked or manipulated by a robot.
NOTE: Conveyor tracking requires an Adept SmartController CX motion controller. The
Overlap Tool and Communication Tool both require a Conveyor Tracking license.
The Communication Tool is configured using its object editor.

Explorer and select:
New > Vision > AdeptSight > Communication Tool
The tool is added to the AdeptSight workspace and the Communication Tool object
editor opens.
2. Use the controls within the object editor to configure the Communication Tool for your
application.
