Inspection Tools
7–85
Figure 7.66 provides an example of a toolset edit panel with two image tools,
where the first image tool (
Tool 1 ) places its processed image in the P1
image buffer, as indicated by the “ P1 ” entry in the “ Dest ” column, and the
second image tool ( Tool 2 ) uses the processed image from Tool 1 as its S1
source image.
Figure 7.66 Example: One Image Tool Using an Image From Another Image Tool
For the purposes of the example in Figure 7.66, assume that the AOI#1
window of
Tool 1 is positioned over an object in the camera #1 image as
illustrated in Figure 7.67.
Figure 7.67 Example: AOI #1 Window in Image Tool (Tool 1)
When you select the second image tool ( Tool 2 ) from the toolset edit panel,
the “tool outside” message appears, as shown in Figure 7.68 (page 7–86).
Note that the image from Tool 1 (that is, from image buffer P1 ) is positioned
in the upper–left corner of the image display area, and the default “tool”
(which in this case is the AOI#1 window of
Tool 2 ) clearly extends outside
the P1 image.
