Published: Monday, February 7, 2011 - 15:05 (Cognex Corp.: Natick, MA) -- Cognex Corp. has announced a new option to deliver its VisionView operator interface to third-party CE panels. VisionView CE software can now be licensed and installed directly onto Rockwell and Siemens CE panels, allowing end-users to use existing equipment and thereby reduce monitor clutter. In addition to supporting VisionView CE software to run on Rockwell and Siemens CE panels, a new software release, VisionView 1.4, adds the functionality to support filtered images, provides the ability to view the failed image next to the current image, has additional touch-screen drivers for the VisionView VGA model, and has 64-bit support for Microsoft Windows 7. “VisionView CE software now offers users seamless integration with factory floor HMIs by allowing them to run VisionView on their own Rockwell and Siemens CE panels,” says Bhaskar Banerjee, business unit manager for Vision Systems. “The addition of the VisionView CE software model to the product line, as well as the additional software upgrades, makes VisionView the most powerful tool for monitoring and controlling vision applications directly from the factory floor.” VisionView CE. The new VisionView CE software option offers all the standard VisionView features and enables operators to view their applications using their existing Rockwell or Siemens CE panels. VisionView CE offers higher performance and ability to support larger screens while reducing additional monitor clutter. VisionView PC. The VisionView PC software has all the standard VisionView features while providing the flexibility of using your own choice of PC and monitor. VisionView VGA. VisionView VGA provides the flexibility by allowing “control room” viewing of images and results without being limited by the size of the display. The VisionView VGA adapter supports VGA displays of different resolutions, as well as touch-screen displays. VisionView 700. The VisionView 700 is a powerful, low-cost operator interface panel that provides password-protected user control to adjust vision tool parameters and regions of interest without requiring a PC on your factory floor. New features in VisionView 1.4 include: • Software licenses for third-party CE panels, such as Rockwell PanelViewPlus and Siemens MP-Series CE Panels. End-users can reduce monitor clutter by using existing panels instead of purchasing new monitors for their vision systems. The new VisionView CE software, and the new VisionView 1.4 software, is available now. For more information, or to download a free trial version of VisionView 1.4, visit www.cognex.com/visionview.
