Banner PresencePLUS Pro COLOR—PROII Camera - Manual (Page 250)

• In the sequence that the tools are selected within the Communication tool.
• In the sequence that the options are listed within the tools for export
One inspection can have more than one Communication tool.
Use one Communication tool to:
• Export data out of one port (serial or Ethernet).
• Export identical data out of multiple ports at the same time.
Use multiple Communication tools to:
• Separate the data and export separate segments to unique external devices.
• Customize the order of the exported data.
• Export data from the Vision tools at different times during the inspection.
• Customize the “Start Strings” control characters to unique external devices.
Note:
The Test tool can have the Communication tool as one of its inputs. Therefore, if a Test tool is added after
the Communication tool, a discrete output can be activated:
• If the TCP/IP connection is lost.
• If the external device fails to acknowledge it received data.
This output could contribute to an inspection Pass/Fail if it is an input to a Test tool. A Communication tool without
a Test tool will not contribute to the inspection Pass/Fail.
