Adding an Emulation Device

An Emulation Device is a stored collection of images, which the AdeptSight software can treat
as if they were coming from a "live" (physical) camera. This is mostly used for working offline,
when a camera is not available, or when viewing images from an application at a remote facil-
ity (you need a copy of the workspace and the sample images).

To add an Emulation Device:

1. Right-click in the Tree structure of the Workspace Explorer and select:

New > Vision > Device > Emulation Device

Creating an Emulation Device

For Emulation Devices, you are offered the option of creating a virtual camera when
the Emulation Device is added:

a. Check "Create a virtual camera".

b. Give the emulation device a name.

The name is just to help you remember which emulation device this is, because
you can add multiple emulation devices to a workspace.

c. Click Finish.
