9.4.5.5 Executing Camera Calibration
When you execute camera calibration, the Vision Manager calculates the
coordinate conversion coefficients from the entered vision coordinates and the
robot coordinates. Then, the Manager stores the calculation results in the file
specified on the personal computer. To register the calibration data to the
Controller, you need to transmit the data to the Controller from the personal
computer.
When the calibration data is transmitted to the Controller, only the coordinate
conversion coefficients are registered to the Controller. You can convert the
vision coordinates of user program into robot coordinates using the coordinate
conversion library.
The coordinate conversion library converts the coordinates using the
coordinate conversion coefficients registered in the Controller.
Q Click on Calibration (A).
Coordinate conversion coefficients are calculated and displayed in B.
The coordinate conversion coefficients are saved in a set file on the
personal computer.
R Transmit the calibration data to the Robot Controller from the personal
computer.
For the transmit method, refer to Chapter 9 “9.2.5 Transfer” in this manual.
When calibration data is transmitted, all the data is transmitted in a batch.
When executing calibration at several points, execute calibration of all the
points, and then transmit the data to the Robot Controller.

Q: If the error message “Improper coordinate data” appear
during calibration, check the coordinates of all the points and
enter them again.

R: If you change the coordinates, always press the calibration
button to recalculate the coordinate conversion coefficients.
