I was wondering if there was a way to save the data logs in a different format in the CVS with VBAI. In other words, not just as a text file, or atleast not in the format you have it set as. For example, the Match Pattern step will have five lines of data, whereas, the Count Pixels will have two. This makes it more difficult to grab this data and plot it. Since the CVS is based on FPGA technology, are there any downloads available to install into these CVS' to do this? We own 4 of the CVS1456 and have at least 5 different inspections being done on each vision system and these run for 8-12 hours per day, 5-6 days a week. So there is a lot of data being logged, and they all have different features to look at and different inspection steps. Is there a simple way of getting the text files to be charted out without using Microsoft software (ie. Access, Excel). I know your competitors make this software available for free (I won't name them unless you'd like me too), what do you have that can make the process of charting data more simple? I can't purchase Labview. What other options do you offer? Thanks for your help.
