 Machine Simulator
The Machine Simulator processing item allows you to see how the alignment marks move on the
image while each axes of the stage or robot is being controlled. You can use it to verify the operation
of the alignment processing items even if the actual stage or robot is not available. The following
example uses two Cameras to describe the use of the Machine Simulator processing item to verify
the operation of a Vision Master Calibration processing item.

For example, if you selected an XYθ stage, there are three
axes. You would register three units in the flow.
• Target unit: The next registered Machine Simulator process-
ing item
• Data No.: Each axis movement (number 128 to 135)
• Settings data: The next set of axis movements (NMX to
NMR) for the Vision Master Calibration processing item

a special feature of the workpiece from the image in Camera 0.
Out of the general measurement processing items (Inspections
and Measurements), you can use processing items with mea-
surement results that have an X and Y in the calculation
strings.
To output the position on the image, set [Calibration] on the
[Output parameter] tab page to OFF.
