• Scorpion Image Processing

VisionX is installed together with Scorpion. On the Scorpion CD ImageX_Setup.exe is located. This will install VisionX independant of Scorpion Vision Software. In this setup program there is ImageX Test Container application - shown to the right. The ImageX Test Container is used to develope and verify VisionX applications before embedding them into a host application.

More on ImageX Test Container.

To develope Image Processing for VisionX you need a special Scorpion Licence - Scorpion VisionX SDK.

VisionX supports the following python objects from Scorpion :

• Tool
• Toollist

More on Scorpion Python Scripting, Classes and APIs

An example VisionX application is shown below:

The Toolbox is developed with Scorpion Vision Software and are exported as a xmlspb file.

Note: To export a valid VisionX xmlspb file you need a Scorpion VisionX SDK licence.

The following Python scripts will active Scorpion Image Processing in VisionX:

OnInit - # loads tool list from list

print ' load ',GetToolList().load('\\toolbox\\printcontrol.spb')
ExecuteCmd('Start','') # activates live video

OnImage - # execute toollist on every image (ignoring manual execution option for the tools)

GetToolList().execute()                                             #executes all tools, manual tools included
passValue = GetValue('Pass.Value')                           # retrieves pass / fail value
ExecuteCmd('Command','Pass='+str(int(passValue))) # sends value to host application

OnImage - # execute toollist on every image (using manual execution option for the tools)

tools=GetToolList()                                                   #executes all tools, manual tools included
firstTool =tools.tool(0)                                               #get first tool
lastTool =tools.tool(tools.count-1)                               #get last tool
tools.execute(firstTool.name,lastTool.name,0)              #execute all tools - no execution of manual tools
passValue = GetValue('Pass.Value')                           # retrieves pass / fail value
ExecuteCmd('Command','Pass='+str(int(passValue))) # sends value to host application
