Color, Contrast and Luminescence Sensor Selection

Sensor commissioning involves selection of the right sensor to job, installation and evaluation. Many sensors feature a "teach" function. The teach function allows the operator to "teach" the sensor the pass or fail condition by placing a known "good" part in the sensor's field-of-view, pressing a key on the sensor, then placing a "bad" part in the sensor's field-of-view and again ...
