Object Type
Use the Object Type menu item to configure your application for inspecting
either one–color or two–color objects. Generally, tablets are regarded as
one–color objects, even when each side is a different color, because the
camera can only see one side, and thus one color, at a time. Conversely,
capsules are regarded as two–color objects, when the two halves are different
colors, since the camera can see both halves at the same time.
When you pick this menu item, it toggles to the alternate state. Thus, if it
currently displays
Object Type: 1–color , it toggles to Object Type:
2–color (and vice versa).
Flipped Objects
Use the Flipped Objects menu item to configure your application for
“flipped objects” if the objects (capsules or tablets) have two colors and they
appear in blister pockets in a random orientation. This means that a capsule
could have either end facing in one direction in a pocket, or a tablet could
have either side facing up in a pocket. In both cases, it is assumed that the
pattern of tablet or capsule orientation is variable from blister to blister.
Figure 6.3 provides an example of flipped capsules.

When you pick this menu item, it toggles to the alternate state. Thus, if it
currently displays
Flipped Objects: Yes , it toggles to Flipped Objects: No
(and vice versa).
In the situation illustrated by Figure 6.3, the blister will be rejected if the
Flipped Objects is set to No , but will be accepted if set to Yes .
