Vision System Setup
If the Vision System has not been calibrated since FmNT was initially installed, you will
receive a notice when FmNT starts, indicating that the Vision System has not been
calibrated.
If the camera or any part of the vision system has been changed or upgraded, the Vision
System will need to be re-calibrated. It is also a good troubleshooting routine to perform if
you are having trouble identifying fiducials, corners or see an accuracy problem.
To calibrate the Vision System:
1. In the Main Window, click on Configuration.
2. From the Configuration menu, select Setup Vision
Setup VisionSetup Vision
Setup Vision.
> The Vision Parameters dialog box in Figure 6-10 opens and displays the
parameters configured for your system at installation.

3. Click on Calibrate in the General segment of the dialog box.
> A Teach Window opens.
> Load a board if one is not already loaded.
4. Use the Position Controls to locate a Model Fiducial.
