Recommendations for selecting a pattern or contour For reliable evaluation The pattern contour should have a unique characteristic some aspect that does not occur on a bad part Patterns or pattern characteristics should have clear contours shapes Pattern contour characteristics should NOT vary The pattern area should be set as large as possible within the image A pattern that fills 10 of the image will be more reliably detected than a pattern that only fills 1 of the image If necessary move the sensor closer to the target The pattern area red frame should be entirely within the yellow frame region of interest For higher resolution and speed do not set the yellow frame larger than necessary relative to the size of the pattern The larger the area that requires evaluation namely the ROI relative to the size of the pattern the slower the evaluation time Sensor Image Region of Region of Interest Interest Sensor Image Patt att ern More Consistent Detection Less Consistent Detection Roc 3 ell 10000000877 02 45 Automation MultiSight User Manual Start up Region of Region of Interest Interest Sensor Image Sensor Image Faster Slower Position Deviation Check and Frame Type Position control can be activated when the pattern matching or contour matching detector types are selected If position control is selected a blue frame is displayed on image screen The X Y coordinates for the
