To send
The To send value (if available) specifies how many results are sent to the robot.
Sending too many details would mean that the robot would have to process and
check considerably more coordinates than it is able to pick. In most cases the
value of Total number should be set relatively high, while the value of To send
can be set relatively low. This is because a number of the details that are found
may be impossible to grip due to collision detection.
The robot can also sort and select which details are to be picked when several
occurrences are sent to the robot, for example based on the signals from the
machine used in production.
Timeout
The Timeout parameter specifies a maximum period of time used for searching.
An image taken against a dirty conveyor belt often contains a lot of noise. This
noise results in a large number of edges being found, even in areas where there
are no details. Processing all these edges can take relatively long. With the Timeout
parameter, the maximum search time can be limited so that the identification time
does not affect the robot cycle time. If no timeout is set at all, the search could
take several minutes in the worst case.
Position Settings
The following settings apply at position level, i.e. they only affect the current
position. It is easy to switch between positions by clicking on the arrows to change
position.
Permitted deviation for different properties
For all properties, an upper (maximum deviation) and lower (minimum deviation)
limit is specified as a percentage. The requirements for the two positions must be
completely different in at least one aspect, otherwise a warning is displayed.
