The data requested in the rest of this form will vary depending on the Mode
selected.

Vision Tools

Once the mode is selected, you should select the appropriate vision tools and
properties on the left side of the form. Only tools that provide appropriate
results for the selected mode will be displayed. Some modes require just one
vision tool.

Limits

You set the minimum and maximum limits, and nominal value, to determine
how the filter behaves. You can run the tool from this form. When the tool
runs, it will show the current and average values for instances that pass the
filter.

l

Minimum and Maximum determine whether an instance passes or fails
the filter.

l

Nominal is used in calculating the deviation result. It does not influence
passing or failing.

Average/Current Values

The tool can be run once or repetitively, (by clicking Cycle), from within the
filter editor, to test the values set for the limits. This lets you determine the
appropriate values for the limits.

l

Average is the average value obtained from the tool since Average was
last cleared.

l

The box to the right of Average displays how many iterations of the tool
were used to obtain the average.

l

Current Value displays the most recent result of the tool.

You can click the buttons that follow to run the tool once, run continuously,
stop a continuous run, or clear the Average value (so you can start another con-
tinuous run).
