During the operation, the light volume on the workpiece used to 
be inconsistent due to the changes of surrounding environment. 
Inconsistency of the light volume could change the image s light 
level, and hinder the stable inspection/measurement results. 
VISUAL STATION uses light level automatic adjustment system 
with illuminance monitoring function that provides the stable 
screen image with the consistent light level.
New algorism reinforces the functions of conventional gray 
search (correlation for normalization). This system provides a 
stable search even if the workpiece you wish to search is 
partially hidden or chipped.
It used to be・・・
○Difficult to conduct 
 the stable search 
 unless the 
 workpiece was 
 perfectly visible 
 and captured.
New algorism (S search) reinforces search function.
Reliable maintenance with lighting control
High basic performances together with various maintenance functions
High-quality IV assets are inherited, and S search and lighting control 
are newly added.
(Patent pending)
With window for trigger set up, no 
need for any external sensor even 
for moving measurement. You can 
select your trigger detection method 
from binary processing, average light 
level and gray search. Gray search 
can be used for the workpieces for 
which setting of the light range is tricky.
CCD trigger function requires no external sensor

High speed camera and partial image capture 
function greatly reduce the inspection time.
VISUAL STATION can work with double-speed/quadruple-speed 
cameras with progressive system CCD. Partial image capture 
function speed up the image-capturing. And further reduction of 
time can be possible by selecting from 4 modes to suite your 
inspection/measurement purpose.
* Partial image is captured when 240 lines out of 480 lines are read.
* Standard cameras: IV-S30C1/IV-S30C2, high speed camera: IV-S30C3/IV-S30C4
* Full mode: odd /even lines are read, half mode: only odd lines are read.

VISUAL STATION is equipped with lighting control function. 
When lighting power source for lighting control is used, general-
purpose serial interface can control ON/OFF of the lighting, 
diagnose the light volume, and remotely control the lighting volume. 
This function allows you to prevent from improper detection caused 
by the lowered light volume.
