Software Support For Vision Sensors
Red Lion Controls has announced that their Crimson 3.0 software platform is now compatible with Banner Engineering's iVu Plus TG vision sensors. The new iVu driver, available in Crimson 3.0's most recent release, joins a list of over 200 serial and Ethernet communications drivers included with Red Lion's acclaimed programming software and available on the diverse offering of Red Lion data management products including G3 Series HMIs, Modular Controller and Data Station Plus. Integrating Crimson 3.0 with Banner's iVu Plus TG enables users to display vision sensor operation and perform commissioning and operation via Red Lion G3 Series HMIs, Modular Controller or Data Station Plus. Utilizing the intuitive touchscreen interface featured on G3 Series 8", 10" and 15" HMIs provides users with the ability to visualize image outputs and direct iVu Plus TG operation remotely. Additionally, for enhanced data visibility and accessibility, interfacing iVu Plus sensors with HMIs and other management tools enables users to apply the built-in, data-logging capabilities inherent in Red Lion products to inspection applications. Users can record and export data from the iVu Plus, storing it in an IT-friendly, CSV file format, so data can be viewed easily through universal desktop programs, such as Microsoft Excel. The company is a leading manufacturer of industrial control solutions worldwide. Products include protocol converters, operator interface panels, process controllers, digital/analog panel meters, sensors, and signal conditioners.
