Setting Up Your In-Sight Vision System Install the Mounting Bracket The vision system provides mounting holes for attachment to a mounting surface. CAUTION: You must ground the vision system, either by mounting the vision system to a fixture that is electrically grounded or by attaching a wire from the mounting fixture on the vision system to frame ground or earth ground.
Setting Up Your In-Sight Vision System Connecting the Ethernet Cable CAUTION: The Ethernet cable shield must be grounded at the far end.Whatever this cable is plugged into (typically a switch or router) should have a grounded Ethernet connector. A digital voltmeter should be used to validate the grounding.
Setting Up Your In-Sight Vision System Connecting the Power and I/O Breakout Cable CAUTION: To reduce emissions, connect the far end of the Breakout cable shield to frame ground. Note: Perform wiring or adjustments to I/O devices when the vision system is not receiving power. You can clip unused wires short or use a tie made of non-conductive material to tie them back.
Follow the steps below to install and connect your vision system to the In-Sight Vision Suite. 1. Download the latest version of In-Sight from support.cognex.com/ and follow the on-screen steps. 2. Connect the 8900 series vision system to your PC.
Using Your In-Sight Vision System Trigger Types The In-Sight 8900 vision systems support the following trigger modes: Single (external trigger): Acquires a single image and runs the current job on the acquired image. The vision system relies on an external trigger source. Self: At a time interval you configure, the vision system acquires an image and runs the job continuously.
Using Your In-Sight Vision System External Triggers If you are using external triggering, you can use any of the following methods to trigger your vision system. Send a pulse on the I/O cable. Trigger + Trigger - Send a trigger command over Native Mode. Press F5 on the keyboard while the In-Sight Vision Suite has the input focus.
Using Your In-Sight Vision System Industrial Protocols The vision system supports the following industrial protocols: EtherNet/IP™, EDS and PLC PROFINET (Class B) SLMP Protocol TCP/IP OPC/UA SFTP For more information, see Industrial Communications in the In-Sight Spreadsheet Help documentation.
