Hi andrej,
can you setup Cognex camera system inside robotstudio?

I’m looking forward for your answer.

thx you in advance!

Hi Andrej,

is your camera mounted on the robot or do you have it on a fix position?

Hej Hej. Its another Problem but the Topic is the same.

I’ve got a Robot with IRC5 and Robotstudio 5.13. Additionally i’ve got a Feeder providing my PC with images. So I got like every 3 seconds a Image that need to be checked by Cognex Insight for Patternmatching things. So my PC got Cognex insight installed and I need to check every 3 seconds an Image-file.
Is this possible to program with robotstudio? Because I cant find any command to open a file ( for camera it would be CX_TriggImage) and then do the job. I just want to automate the Job: open Image-file and do job. this like every 3 seconds. I’m not sure if this is possible.

best regards
