4.9 Selection of the evaluation mode
The evaluation mode determines when a image of an inspec­
tion part is taken, processed and checked and the results
output.
Selection of the evaluation mode specifies how the device
reacts to input signals or when the test results are provided
at the outputs. Note the descriptions of the signal processes
starting in chapter 4.9.1 ff.
The following evaluation modes can be selected via the “Eval­
uation Mode” system parameter in the “System Parameters”
window in CheckKon:
– Triggered: Frame capture and inspection with each valid
triggering signal.
– Free run: Consecutive image taking and checking (without
fixed frame rate) as long as the trigger signal is on.
– Fixed frame rate: Consecutive image taking and checking
with established frame rate as long as the trigger signal is
on (not for SBO...-Q-R3).
Selection of the evaluation mode depends on the respective
application, in particular on:
– the inspection part rate and inspection part flow
– the inspection part (individual piece or continuous)
– interaction with a higher-level controller.
