Logging Data from the XG Series
The XG VisionTerminal can log (collect) inspection results,
images, and archived data output from the XG Series
during operation.
Note
•
To log data, the flowchart program created in XG VisionEditor
must include either a data output step, an output image step, or
an archived output location step that specifies the [PC
program] as the destination device. For more details, see the
XG VisionEditor Reference Manual (Programming Edition).
•
To store images and archived data output from the XG-8000
Series as logs, Ver. 5.0 or higher is required.
Register the XG Series controller as a connection in the XG
VisionTerminal to log data from it.
