4. and also, how can i see vision view on the programming pendent?

Did you purchase the Motosight 2D package with your robot and camera? It has standard macros that do all the math and an app that allows you to trigger the camera and see the picture taken by the camera. You can then also set up ethernet communication between the camera, the robot and the Cognex software.

No i don't have Motosight.I have insight software. can i connect vision and Dx200 with this software?
if you have any manuals about communication and robot program please send me. i don't know how can i write program for robot and do pick and place application please help me. -
Hi,
you should use VSTART function, in this way you can communicate with Cognex camera. But you will not have camera view in the programming pendant. If you want this, you need MotoSight.
There are some parameters to set if you want to use VSTART function, you will need to ask it to Yaskawa because there is a FD parameter to change. -
Ok. Thanks
But where is this function in PP? now, i don't see this function in PP. How can i active it? -
Call Yaskawa. For a small fee they will activate it for you.
