The screen picture under normal operation is shown below. The picture can roughly be divided into the following parts:  

Main buttons
(upper row, below the main window title). These buttons are used to Start, Stop and Close the system. Additionally there are two buttons to lock/unlock the password protected Settings and Service panels. You can save an image by pressing Image and do a manual inspection by pressing Inspection. Save the profile by pressing Profile. If two or more systems are simultaneously running on the same machine, the Next button is used to toggle between the systems. In settings and service mode you will also see: The Snapshot and Inspection buttons that are used to take an image and inspect this for instance at system verification, configuration or on manual operation.

Image 
(left, below the main buttons). The camera images of the unit to be identified are shown here. Selecting and dragging the image can zoom in details. A simple click zooms back. You can choose to see one or all images at a time in systems using more than one image for classification. See Image operations for a description of available camera image features.

Inspection Results
(lower left) shows the running inspection results. The classification result is shown in text – we call it the state. Additionally you can display one or more result parameters in this field. (In the above example given by the ‘Distance’ parameter.) Right click the mouse over the field, and you see the menu to choose from. You need however to be authorized to change the result panel set-up. Normal conditions are usually indicated by a green background colour, other conditions by for instance yellow or red. You set the colour under Service-States.

Indicator panel
The Indicator panel is showing selected measured values calculated by Scorpion’s logical tools. The inspection result is based on these values. On error, the representing indicator panel field changes colour to e.g. red to illustrate the cause of the error. If you are authorized, you can change the value to be shown as well as the title and colour of the indicator panel fields. Press the right mouse button over the field and select from the menu showing up. You can also extend the panel by adding more fields or remove fields from the panel.

Detailed panels
(right), here you can chose different detailed information: history, curves, results or statistics. Here you also find the Settings and Service panels.  

Status bar

•  Image trigger - status for ready signal from the production line

•  Status for manual code signal from the production line

• Status for reset signal from the production line
