Connecting a Robot

RapiDVision can communicate with an external robot over Ethernet.

Use this setup to send detection results from the vision system to your robot controller.

Steps

1. Connect the vision system to the robot controller with an Ethernet cable.
2. Open Settings and go to the Advanced tab.
3. Set Sorter type to Robot.
4. Enter the robot IP address.
5. Enter the robot Port.

Encoder Settings (Optional)

If your robot provides encoder signaling to the vision system, configure it through the socket connection settings:

1. Enter the encoder Min Modulo value.
2. Enter the encoder Max Modulo value.
3. Enable Modulo Check when the modulo range is finite.

Verify the Connection

• Confirm the robot is reachable on the configured IP address and port.
• Confirm the vision system can send data without socket errors.
• Run a small test batch to validate end-to-end robot communication.
