be completed easily and quickly.

Simplified connection using Ethernet


Up to three robots and seven vision systems can be connected together to
the same system by Ethernet connection. Vision system information can be
shared between multiple robots.

Simplified control using robot language


The included dedicated vision system commands enable vision system startup, job selection, and control of data receiving and other operations to be
completed quickly and easily using a single command without any need for protocols.
