3.5 Configuration with SOPAS-ET
The SOPAS-ET configuration software can be used to configure the operating principle of
the camera system in line with the customer requirements.
The software is installed on a PC, which is generally connected to the camera system via
the controller by means of Ethernet.
You can define various settings, including:
• Configuration of the code position and the symbol contrast.
• Configuration of the image resolution perpendicular to the conveyor direction (digital
zoom in dpi) and in the conveyor direction (dynamic scanning frequency in lpi).
• Configuration of the trigger source.
• Configuration of the camera focusing (default position and source of the distance
measurement).
• Configuration of the illumination mode and time-out for the illumination unit.
• Configuration of the position and inclination angle of the camera and the deflector
mirror.
• Configuration of the increment source and the resolution/speed.
• Configuration of the image format and the scaling/quality.
• Configuration of the code types for 1D and 2D codes.
• Configuration of the network parameters.
• Configuration of the data interfaces.
You can learn how to connect to SOPAS-ET and configure the camera system in chapter
6 Commissioning and configuration).
