2-1-1 Basic System of Measurement
When the FH/FZ5 receives a measurement trigger from the PLC or other external device, the image
input from a Camera, measurement processing, and output of measurement results (e.g., OK/NG
judgement results) are executed in the order that those processing items are registered in the measure-
ment flow.
• In the measurement flow, you can change the processing
to execute based on the inspection results
or input conditions of the vision inspection.
• You can use macro processing to execute pre-packaged processing items and functions in the
FH/FZ
5 to create original programs. This allows you to create original measurement processes, dis-
play processing, input and output pr
ocessing, and settings dialog boxes that are custom-tailored to
your application.
