Display a Text String in the Image (In-Sight Sensors)
From the In-Sight Explorer Spreadsheet View, you can use the In-Sight PlotString function to plot a text string on the sensor's image.
Example: The sensor is reading a 1D or 2D barcode or symbol.
1. Log on to a PC.
2. Launch In-Sight Explorer and log on to the appropriate sensor.
3. Load the appropriate job file to the sensor.
4. Insert a ReadIDCode function in the spreadsheet that returns the decoded alphanumeric string being read.
5. Insert the PlotString function in the spreadsheet, referencing the decoded string. Using the Format Cells dialog, format the Font, Font
Style and Font Size of the PlotString cell and the plotted text string.
6. Save the job, close In-Sight Explorer and return to the VisionView application. The formatted text string should be displayed over the
image.
