Flow Menus select the required processing items from the library, combining and linking
them for you
Ideal for the following
• Stabilize measurement images by filtering the required number of times.
• Perform measurements according to workpiece tolerance by changing the measurement area
baased on measurement results
• Periodically check for data variations by outputting the maximum and minimum values for
each 10 measurements,

Features
Macros
Augment Flow Menus using a PC text editor. The Software package can be edited using text commands to customize I/
O controls, displays, and GUI
Programs can be created using only a text editor, with no need for any special development environment.
Ideal for the following
• Creating special menus.
• Displaying and outputting the date and time of NG measurements.
• Automatically saving NG images to a Memory Card.
• Changing the number of registered product types.
Special menus using macros
Customization Manual
The know-how from the past is incorporated in a manual so that Reverse Customization can be used to determine the
best method to execute the desired process.
• Building Flow Menus and Using Macros
When an item is selected for operation, a sample program and
explanation are displayed. Multiple samples can be easily combined.

Processing Item Support
The F250-UM3FE (UM3ME) Application Software supports approximately 70 different processing items. These can be freely com-
bined for inspections as needed. Image input, measurement support, branch control, results output, and results display can be
used in common for all of the models (F210 and F250).

Uses gray models to detect positions in pixel units.
Uses gray models to detect positions in sub-pixel units.
Multiple models are registered to enable searching even when
there is variation.
Up to 64 regions can be registered per Unit, and high-speed pro-
cessing is possible. (See note.)
Uses edge code models so that processing is not affected by de-
formation or dirt.
No model registration is required. Searches using shape infor-
mation such as "round" or "angular."
High-speed processing is possible. (See note.)
