Chapter 4
Inspection Configuration
4–2
Typically, a configuration file is given a name that indicates its role in the
overall inspection application. Similarly, each toolset is named for its role.
(For example, the configuration file, toolset, and tool archive file might be
named “
32oz Bottle ,” “ FrontLabel ,” and “ 32ozFrontLbl ,” respectively.)
The user places the CVIM2 system online by selecting one configuration file
by its name, then selecting the online mode.
This chapter discusses the process of inspection configuration, which
involves naming a configuration file and selecting a camera source, trigger
source, and one or more inspection tools for at least one inspection.
The first step in the configuration process is to create a configuration file. As
shown in Figure 4.1, this file will contain inspection and display settings, and
the names of other files that contain the inspection tools for each toolset, the
discrete I/O settings, the acquisition settings, and the communication
message definitions.
The configuration process begins when you pick Environment in the main
menu bar, then pick Config in the Environment menu. When you do, the
Config Files panel appears initially as shown in Figure 4.2.
