being passed through the system, the reject rate and the reject percentage against the total
number of packs passed. This information is also displayed in a graphical format.
The Rates sub-tab provides the following:
 Rates (area) - This area displays the following:
 Product Rate (ppm) - The current number of packs being inspected per
minute is displayed. This is indicated on the graph by a

Maximum (ms) - The maximum time in milliseconds taken to process a
pack is displayed.
Average (ms) - The average time in milliseconds taken to process
each pack is displayed.
Timeout – If the time taken to process any product image exceeds 25%
of the values entered in these fields, the time will be coloured orange
as a caution. When it exceeds 50%, the time is coloured red and a
fault will occur as the system cannot reject the product. You should
reduce the speed of the conveyor and the number of inspection tools
enabled, and either decrease the pack length or increase the reject
distance. The following total timeout times are displayed:
 Image (ms) - The total image timeout time for all packs in
milliseconds is displayed.
 Reject (ms) - The total reject timeout time for all packs in
milliseconds is displayed.
