Considerations
When Using the
Send Option
After preparing a new configuration record, or modifying
an existing one, you can use the Send option to download
the data in the new or modified configuration record to the
SLS.
When you select the Send option and press the ENTER key,
the CSS uploads a set of “variables” from the SLS (such as
lighting compensation parameters) that the SLS “learned”
from initial image acquisitions. The CSS compares these
“taught variables” to the variables contained in the
configuration record data to be downloaded (none of these
variables appear on the display).
If the two sets of variables do not match, the CSS displays
the following message:
The taught variables in the SLS don’t
I
match the variables in this record
Do you want to save the SLS variables?
(Note that the Yes and No prompts appear in the prompt
line near the top of the display. Initially, Yes is highlighted.)
This “taught variables” message asks whether you want the
highlighted configuration record to acquire a set of “taught
variables” from the SLS, or retain those that are currently
stored in the configuration record.
If you select Yes and press the ENTER key, the CSS first
overwrites the stored variables in the configuration record
with the “taught variables” from the SLS, then downloads
the altered configuration data to the SLS. The SLS is then
ready to operate using the new set of variables instead of
the variables originally stored in the configuration record.
If you select No and press the ENTER key, the CSS
downloads the unaltered configuration data to the SLS. The
SLS is then ready to operate using the variables originally
stored in the configuration record instead of the new set of
variables.
Select Yes, typically, during initial setup operations, when
the SLS has heen operating using the “Setup/Teach Mode”
long enough to acquire stable lighting compensation and
other parameters, and is ready to be switched to “Run
Mode” operation.
At that point, you could modify the current configuration
record by changing “Setup/Teach Mode” to “Run Mode”
(or create a new configuration record), save the mcord, then
download it to the SLS. When the “taught variables”
