Focus Laser Sensor (FLS) is a sensor for vision machines in which a laser beam works through a lens (this assumes a camera sensor and implies that the laser beam is visible in the PC-DMIS Live view). The inherent advantage is that you can use the laser as a pointer for rapid locating of features on the part.
Entry Name: FLSPresent
Entry Type: TRUE / FALSE values. TRUE enables FDC to handle the FLS. FALSE prevents the FLS command from being passed on to the FDC.
In order to use FLS with FDC, the following settings are necessary:
(FDC) FLSPresent = TRUE
(MSI) Laser_Type = 1
Do not change these settings. Refer to the Machine Interface Installation Manual (MIIM) help file for detailed information.
