Vision Backup − Tool Version 2
You can use this tool to store (back up) created product type data to a Windows PC*
and then to transfer (restore) it to the controller.
Even if created data was destroyed it can be quickly restored if has been backed up.
Image data stored on the controller can also be stored on the Windows PC* in order to
contribute credibility to an inspection “failure.”
If an inspected product is assembled into equipment and shipped, then it doesn’t work
after installation, the “failed” image can be matched with the product type data and sent
by e
− mail so the malfunction can be analyzed anywhere.
