Vision Builder AI System Signals

Vision Builder AI supports the following system signals.

System Signal Behavior
System Online Signal goes high when Vision Builder AI opens and goes low when Vision Builder AI closes. When Vision Builder AI is running on a remote target, System Online is always high.
Inspection Loaded Signal goes high when an inspection opens and goes low when an inspection closes
Inspection in Progress Signal goes high when an inspection starts and goes low when the inspection stops.
Camera Ready Signal goes high when an inspection starts or when an inspection reaches the End state. The signal goes low when an acquisition starts.
Inspection Busy Signal goes high when an acquisition starts and goes low when an inspection reaches the End state.
Image Acquisition in Progress Signal goes high when the inspection reaches an acquisition step and goes low when the acquisition step completes.
Image Acquisition Done Signal goes high when an acquisition step completes and goes low when the inspection reaches another acquisition step or the End state.
System Error Signal is always low.
Note Note  System signals do not update on the remote target in Configuration mode when you run only a single state. When running an inspection on a remote target in Configuration mode the inspection starts and stops for each iteration. This behavior differs from Inspection mode, where the inspection runs continuously until the inspection is stopped.

The following figure illustrates the behavior of the System Online, Inspection Loaded and Inspection in Progress signals.

The following figure illustrates the behavior of the System Online, Inspection Loaded and Inspection in Progress signals when Inspection Selection is enabled.
