Vision Sensor Data Backup
The backup function stores on a PC all the files (*.job, *.bmp, *.jpg, proc.set and hosts.net) stored on the
vision sensor.
This function can be used with the specified vision sensor either Online or Offline.
Also, although this function can be used with the specified vision sensor either logged on or logged off,
since the robot and vision sensor access can be slowed down by file transfer operations, normally back
up with the vision sensor offline.
