SICK TriSpector1000, Operating Instructions Manual

Page: 35 / 104

Setting Description
Min. search score Minimum search score for Pass/Fail criteria. Lower search scores
than set value returns in a 'Not Found' result.
Min. edge threshold Only include shapes of greater height than the minimum thresh‐
old.
Robustness Set trade-off between speed and robustness. Low robustness will
result in fewer data points considered to find shape.
Rotation Maximum allowed shape rotation to search for. The greatest possi‐
ble value is
± 180 degrees.
Masks Mask a part of the image to exclude it from the search.

Linking other tools to the Shape tool
If other tools are added after the Shape tool, they will be linked to the Shape tool and
their regions will be repositioned according to the found shape. Drag and drop tools
onto the
Shape tool in the parameter pane to link them. Drag and drop tools outside the
Shape tool to unlink them.

Blob The Blob tool locates clusters of points within a defined
height interval and cluster size. This makes it possible to
measure volume, area, angle, and bounding box.
Blob tool settings
Setting Description
Region shape Set the shape of the region of interest to rectangular or elliptical.
Height range Set upper and lower bounds of the region of interest on the X-axis.
Blob area Only include blobs that have an area within a specified range.
Ignore data Exclude all data above or below an assigned plane (defined by a
Plane or Fix Plane tool) from the analysis.
Blob volume Enable blob volume measurement, either from the bottom of
the region of interest or from an assigned plane.
Sort by Sort the list of found blobs by X-position, Y-position or area.
Invert blobs Invert blobs to locate holes and gaps instead.
Exclude border blobs Remove all blobs that touch the region of interest or image border.
