Processing item Remark
Calculation The Calculation processing item is used to perform calculations using the results and 
measurement values for the processing items registered to the units.
Elapsed Time The Elapsed Time processing item finds the amount of time (in ms) that has passed since 
the measurement trigger was input.
Wait The Wait processing item temporarily stops the execution of the flowchart and holds 
processing for a set time.
Processing unit
Data acquisition
The Get Unit Data processing item is used to obtain one piece of processing item data 
(measurement result, settings parameter, etc.) set in a flowchart.
Processing unit
Data setting
The Set Unit Data processing item is used to replace data during measurement with 
processing item data (e.g., set parameters) set in the flowchart.
Trend Monitor The Trend Monitor processing item is used to display the measurement results history on 
the Monitor.Observation of the measurement value trends helps to prevent frequent 
occurrences of non-conforming articles and to find the cause of NG results when they 
occur.
Data logging Used to output data to the storage via network. 
The data output to the storage can be handled by Vision Composer Net (option).
Processing item Remark
Conditional Branching This processing item is used, for example, when two or more products are being 
processed on the same production line and a different inspection is required for each.
When the Branch processing item is used, two expressions and a condition are set and the 
processing is branched depending on the result of the comparison for the condition.
DI branching Used for applications such as differentiating between product inspections on the same 
production line based on the time.
The subsequent processing items are branched based on the information input to DI0 to 
DI4 on the terminal block.Up to 32 branches can be set.
End The End processing item is the processing item set to the last unit in a branch flow.
The End item is used to end the processing after branching.
Processing item Remark
Memory card data Use the Memory Card Data processing item to output data to a Memory Card.
DO data output The DO Data processing item is used to output data to Programmable Controllers, 
personal computers, and other external devices via a parallel interface.
DO judgement output The DO judgement processing item is used to output Judgements to Programmable 
Controllers, personal computers, and other external devices via a parallel interface.
Host link data The Host Link Data processing item is used to output data to Programmable Controllers 
and other external devices via a serial interface.
Normal data Use the Normal Data processing item to output data to Programmable Controllers, 
personal computers, and other external devices via a serial interface.
