Options — Advanced

The Advanced tab covers system behavior that most users won't need to touch day-to-day, grouped into several sections.

General Options

Field	Description
EcoMode trigger	What puts the system into eco mode.
Standby after no product for (s)	How long the belt can run without a product before the system goes into standby, which slows down inference until the next product arrives. 0 turns standby off. See Live View ▸ Standby.
Lights Always on	Keeps the lights on instead of only during detection.
Dirty lens detector	Enables blur/dirty-lens detection.
Encoder Max Idle Time (s)	How long the encoder can be idle before it's considered stalled.
Phidget Server IP	IP address of the Phidget server.
Start Time for Bottom Detection checks (ms)	Delay before checking for a bottom-camera detection match.
Total time to check for Bottom Detection (ms)	Duration of that check window.
Encoder Source	None, Robot, Phidget, or Camera.

Angle Options

Field	Description
Angle calculation method	Shortest Line, Longest Line, Shortest Angle, Fillet (Head), or Fillet (Tail).
Box calculation method	Axis Aligned, Minimal Area, or Longest Side — how the product's bounding box is computed.
Axis Mode	Bounding Box or Convex Hull.
Lane assignment mode	Center inside lane (a detection is assigned when its bounding box center falls inside the lane polygon) or All 4 bbox corners inside lane (all four corners must fall inside). See Options — Lanes for drawing the lane polygons themselves.
Angle offset	A fixed offset applied to the calculated angle.
Flip Angle	Flips the calculated angle.

Batch Options

Field	Description
Batch Poll Trigger	Disabled, No Detections for X Seconds, Poll ERP Every X Seconds, or Manual Trigger.
No detection trigger (seconds)	Only shown when the trigger is "No Detections for X Seconds."
ERP poll interval (seconds)	Only shown when the trigger is "Poll ERP Every X Seconds."
Batch Poll Mode	None, Poll ERP, or Poll own API. Only shown once a Batch Poll Trigger other than Disabled is selected.

Flags

Field	Description
Use phidgets	Enables Phidget hardware integration.
DemoMode	Runs the system in demo mode.

Style

Controls which overlays are drawn on detected products, in Live View and elsewhere. This used to be its own Style tab; it's now a card at the bottom of Advanced.

Toggle	Description
ConvexHull	Draws the detection's convex hull.
Boundingbox	Draws a bounding box around the detection.
Axis	Draws the detection's measured axis.
Outline Contour	Draws the detection's outline.
Fill Contour	Fills the detection's outline.
Encoderpulse	Shows the encoder pulse value on the detection.
Tracker ID	Shows the tracker's ID on the detection.
Tracker	Shows the tracker path.
Box-corners only	Draws only the bounding box's corners instead of the full box.
Unique Track Colors	Gives each tracked object its own color.
Debug Text	Shows additional debug information on the detection.

Note

This is different from the display settings on the Data page (opened from its own gear icon) — those control how detection overlays are drawn on stored product images you're reviewing, not on the live camera feed.

Conveyor Options

Field	Description
Conveyor direction	Up, Right, Down, or Left.

Detection Options

Field	Description
Polygon approximation	Controls how closely detected contours are simplified.
Delay	Time between a frame being captured by the camera and received by the PC.
Max detections per frame	5, 10, 15, or 20 — the maximum number of detections stored at once in the release field.

Tracker

Field	Description
Translation difference	Only used by the Classic tracker. The maximum distance (in pixels) between the position where the tracker expects a product, after moving it by the encoder, and a new detection, for the tracker to treat them as the same product. See Troubleshooting.
