CVIM2 System Configuration: An Overview

The display panel shows the inspection tools over the inspected image. The
menu bar in the display panel enables you to access these tools for the
purpose of making minor adjustments, and for assigning “freeze” modes,
which allow analysis of images in which one or more tools have failed their
inspection tasks.
The results panel displays the basic inspection results for each tool listed;
namely, the pass/fail status, the accumulated number of faults, and the
numerical inspection result. The “
Totals ” item in the menu bar accesses
additional results data, such as the number of missed triggers and various
inspection timing data.
The CVIM2 system uses a light pen and/or mouse to perform numerous
screen pointer functions such as selecting menus and menu items, picking
and placing tools, and positioning and sizing panels. Most of these functions
are performed by positioning a screen pointer over an item on the screen and
pressing the light pen tip against the screen, or “clicking” the left mouse
button (that is, pressing and releasing the button quickly), if a mouse is used.
Light Pen and Mouse Operation
The light pen and mouse can perform the same screen pointer functions, but
they differ in the method of performing those functions. Table 2.1 identifies
the major differences in the operation of these two screen pointer systems.
