Configuring the
Motion
settings
•
Set the
ProfileTrigger
parameter to
Encoder
to acquire profiles based on encoder
input. A profile is triggered each time the sensor has received a specified number
of ticks from the encoder.
•
• Set the
ProfileTrigger
parameter to
Freerunning
to acquire profiles continuously. In
free running mode, the time between two profiles is determined by the
Speed
and
ProfileDistance
parameters. The object traversing speed must be constant to get
heightmaps with correct proportions.
•
• Set the image resolution by adjusting the
ProfileDistance
and
X-Resolution
parame‐
ters. Keep the pixels as square as possible to ensure that all image processing
algorithms work smoothly.
Configuring the
Field of view
settings
Adjust the
Width
,
Height
, and
Length
parameters of the field of view to fit the object. The
number of profiles in the acquired heightmap is determined by the
Length
parameter
divided by the
ProfileDistance
parameter. The maximum number of height profiles is
2500.
Configuring the
Image Trigger
settings
•
Select
None (continuous)
to acquire profiles continuously. A 3D image is displayed as
soon as the specified number of height profiles have been acquired.
•
Select
Trigger on I/O 3
to start the image acquisition based on a digital input signal.
•
Select
Object Trigger
to start the image acquisition when the object extends above a
specified threshold.
•
Select
Software
to display a
Force Trigger
button which enables triggering from the
user interface.
