VTIMEOUT system parameter
Syntax
MicroV+
PARAMETER VTIMEOUT = value
V+
PARAMETER VTIMEOUT = value
Description
Sets a timeout value so that an error message is returned if no response is received following a vision
command. The timeout value is expressed in seconds (for example, the value 0.15 = 150 ms).
For the MicroV+ system, the default value is 0, which causes an infinite timeout. For the V+ system, the
default value is 5 (seconds).
Details
For the MicroV+ system:
• It is important to set a value other than the default value of 0.
• VTIMEOUT = 0 sets the timeout to "infinite". In this case, the MicroV+ system will wait
indefinitely for a response from the vision system.
For the V+ system, VTIMEOUT = 0 sets the timeout value to 16 ms (which is the minimum timeout that
will be used).
Example
; Get error message if there is no response after 200 ms.
PARAMETER VTIMEOUT = 0.20
