Vision System Ensures Seamless Connectivity

Aug. 5, 2009
The Connect suite of communication capabilities is designed to enable out-of-the-box connectivity between the vendor’s In-Sight vision systems and virtually any major PLC, robot, HMI and fieldbus system commonly used in factory automation. 
A point-and-click configuration interface makes it easy to control multiple vision systems from any network PC, and allows users to easily transfer data and images to an enterprise file server or display them in the operator’s interface, says the vendor. The standard Connect suite of communication capabilities includes pre-configured drivers, ready-to-use templates and sample code to accelerate system set-up and ensure smooth communication with factory automation robots and controllers. Connect is supported on all In-Sight models. Cognex Corp.www.cognex.com877.264.6391
