Panasonic P400MA manual Communication, Stability, Offline parameterization

Communication

In addition to the standard hardware ports (serial interface, parallel I/Os), Vision P400 supports two software interfaces – named pipe and OLE automation (ActiveX®). They enable Vision P400 to communicate with other Windows application or to realize customized user interfaces for your application. Additionally, special actions such as storing NG-images, output warning messages, etc. can be easily realized using Vision P400’s Action command button.

Stability

Vision P400 offers many useful image pre- processing functions such as an exposure adjustment, which compensates potential fluctuations in environmental brightness.

The position/rotation adjustment ensures correct inspection if the object’s position varies. Several filter functions help to optimize the image quality prior to the real evalutation. All these functions significantly improve inspection stability for critical applications.

Offline parameterization

To create a Vision P400 inspection program, it is not mandatory to have a real P400MA/P400 system at hand. Using our free simulation software, any PC or notebook with MS Windows can be used to set-up, test or to optimize a Vision P400 inspection routine. This simulation software offers all major functions of the real version.
