[Project]-[Properties]-[Vision]-[Project Cameras]
You can map project cameras to system cameras.
Project camera is a camera specified by Camera property of vision sequence or calibration.
System camera is a camera configured on System Configuration of RC+.
This function is useful when you use multiple projects on the same PC and refer to the different system camera numbers from the each project camera.
By default, project cameras are mapped one to one with system cameras.
When a project is opened, the cameras used in the project are automatically mapped to system cameras. If one or more cameras cannot be mapped, the [Resolve Camera Configuration] dialog box is displayed.
For more details, refer to the following manual:
"Setup System Cameras and Project Cameras" in "Vision Guide 8.0 Hardware & Setup"
Item | Description |
---|---|
Project Camera | The project camera number to be mapped. |
System Camera | Select the system camera to use for the project camera. |
Mapping of a project camera
For example, let's assume four system cameras are set in RC+ that has two projects; A and B as shown in the table below.
System camera | Model |
---|---|
1 | NS1044BU |
2 | NS4133CU |
3 | acA1600-60gm |
4 | acA2500-14gm |
To map a camera for the project A, select [Project]-[Properties]-[Vision]-[Project Camera] with opening the project A. When setting NS1044BU as a camera 1 that is used in this project, map Project Camera 1 to System Camera 1. (set Project Camera 2, 3, and 4 in the same step.)
To map a camera for the project B, select [Project]-[Properties]-[Vision]-[Project Camera] with opening the project B. When setting acA1600-60gm as camera 1 that is used in this project, map Project Camera 1 to System Camera 3. (set Project Camera 2, 3, and 4 in the same step.)
