Vision Assistance

Can I execute the Vision Assistance Script with LabView and keep open the Vision Assistance ?

Hello, @Balcajo05! How are you?

Yes, you can keep the Vision Assistant open while running a Vision Assistant Script in LabVIEW (it is considered an Express VI in this situation). That is possible because the Vision Assistant Script while running as a VI uses LabVIEW resources to execute, it doesn't need to run the Vision Assistant (stand-alone mode) in background to work out.

I hope this information helps you! Let me know if there is any other doubt toward this subject.

Can you share an Example ?

Because I try to use the Vision Assistance VI on LabView and I double click and open the Vision Assistance Software, the I choose controls and then go back to LabView. But is not what that I want.

I want use LabView like using a VI that has the inputs of the script name.

Will be like a list of scripts names running in a for loop and executes all of them.

Can you help me with the example ?

Thanks

I couldn't understand what you mean with this explanation. Can you explain me in another way or show me a video or images?

Meanwhile, try to understand the Battery Clamp Inspection (Express).vi in LabVIEW, maybe it can help you. This example can be find in the Help tab, try to search for its name on Find Examples.

I saw the battery clamp example and is not what I need.

I want to use only LabView to execute and process the data coming from Vision Assistance.

Will be like using Cognex Insight Camera. See picture

First of all, try to analyze this How to document. It should help you understand what is happening in LabVIEW and Vision Assistant.

Then, try to follow the steps in chapter 3 of this Tutorial. As you can see in the summary there is a topic focusing on Creating a LabVIEW VI. Beyond the chapter 3 I recommend you to take a look on chapter 1 that has some important information about the software and its working tools.

Let me know if these information worked out in your application.
