2 Overview of the Sensor
The iVu TG Image Sensor is used to monitor parts for type, size, orientation, shape, and location. No external PC is required to configure

• On-board language-selectable, intuitive GUI (English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Traditional and Simplified Chi-
nese)
• Easy configuration: install/connect iVu, acquire image, set inspection parameters
• 68,5 mm touch-screen LCD display (320 x240 pixels)
