Remarks

Calibration is required for most vision applications to calculate the proper results for the robot coordinate
system and camera coordinate system. The Calibration property associates a previously defined calibration
with the specified vision sequence. All calibrations which have been completed previously will appear in
the Sequence Tab Calibration property which allows the user to select which calibration to use for this
sequence.

It should be noted that each vision sequence may have only 1 calibration defined at a time. However, if
you want to run a sequence with different calibrations, you can set the Calibration property for the
sequence at runtime prior to initiating the sequence. For example, you can run the sequence test with
calibration calib1 and then later run the sequence test with calibration calib2 as follows:

VSet test.Calibration, calib1

VRUN test

VSet test.Calibration, calib2

VRUN test
