  If you display a live video on the monitor (with Project set to None) while a client (Epson RC+ and/or a Controller) is also using the system, then vision processing will be slower since the video is being grabbed by both the monitor and the client. Setting [Project] to None is intended to be used for checking a camera from the monitor without connecting the Epson RC+.
  For best performance, select one or two projects that you want to monitor and save the settings. If you will not be using the monitor display, set the display mode to None, then save the settings.

• Camera
  This is a dropdown list of project cameras. Note that the camera numbers are the ones used in the Epson RC+ vision configuration. For example, if the Channel 1 camera is camera 3 in the EPSON RC+ vision configuration, then you will see camera 3 in this list. If more than one camera is used in a project, then the choices in the list are Any, Camera[1], Camera[2]. Only sequences using the current camera will be displayed.

• Channel
  This is a dropdown list of the channel numbers. Channel setting is available only when [Project] is set to None. Channel number of each camera connected can be checked by clicking the [Configure...] button.

• Sequence
  This is a dropdown list of the sequences in the selected project. If there is more than one sequence, then the Any choice is also added. When Any is selected, then the video and graphics for any sequence in the specified project using the specified camera are displayed.

• Preference
  You can enable and disable functions of Display Graphics, Allow Zoom, and Allow Live Video. Results of the setting will be reflected to the main screen.

• Display Graphics
  You can set whether to layer the image processing result over the image. Following image is the example of the display when setting [Number of Video Displays] to “2”.
  The [Displays] tab for each window can be opened by double-clicking the display area on the main screen.
  

  After making changes, you can click the [Apply] button to make the changes permanent. If the system is restarted, the settings will be restored to the saved settings.
