Real time data acquisition with PC Simulator

Multi-line Data Acquisition

Keyence unique software packages offer simultaneous real-time data acquisition of both measurement results and captured images from up to 8 controllers. The following versions of CV-H software are available:
1. CV-H1NE – Dedicated data acquisition software for CV-2100
2. CV-H3N – Dedicated data acquisition software for CV-3002/3502 with optional PC Simulator function
3. CV-H5N – Dedicated data acquisition software for CV-5002/5502/5702 with optional PC Simulator function


Data and image collection

Measurement values collected on the CV controller can be output via RS232, Ethernet, or USB. The acquired data can be simultaneously displayed and saved onto an external hard drive. Captured images that are transferred to a PC can be sorted by their OK/NG status based on the measurement results. The images are then displayed in real time and saved to a specified folder.


Transfer and backup programs on a PC

Programs created on the CV controller can be easily transferred and saved on a PC. If the contents of the controller get erased, the saved files can be quickly reloaded to the vision system, reducing downtime. If record keeping is essential, all program properties and settings can be output to an Excel* spreadsheet and saved for future reference.


Advanced Data logging

A time-based data log can be set to collect data from various shifts or product runs. Specific pieces of measurement data can also be tied to the corresponding image that was saved on the PC for easy reference. Data can also be output to a pre-existing Excel* spreadsheet, making the CV data simple to integrate into existing reports.
