- Can I assign a static IP address to the OV20i? Yes, navigate to Settings > System in the OV20i software to configure a static IP address.
- What is the function of the M12 A-Coded 17 Pin connector? It's used for Power I/O connections, including digital inputs and outputs.
- Is the HDMI port functional on the OV20i? No, the HDMI port is not used in the OV20i.
- What should I do if the OV20i becomes hot during operation? It's normal for the OV20i to become warm; ensure proper ventilation and use front mounting points in high-temperature environments.
Software Navigation
- How do I access the OV20i software interface? Connect the camera via USB or Ethernet and enter the appropriate IP address in your web browser.
- What is the 'All Recipes' page? It's the home page where you can create, view, and manage all your recipes.
- What does the HMI section display? The HMI (Human-Machine Interface) shows live image results from the active recipe and allows manual camera triggering.
- What is the purpose of the Library section? The Library stores all images captured by the camera, which can be used for training datasets.
- What is the Haystack feature? Haystack provides visualization tools to analyze model trends and performance indicators.
- How can I update the OV20i software? Navigate to the Software Update section in the toolbar to upload and install updates.
- Where can I find system logs and settings? Under System Settings, you can view and edit network settings, system time, and device storage, and download system logs.
- How do I enable user profiles and permissions? Go to Users and Permissions in the toolbar to configure user access and roles.
- How can I access the user manual offline? Click on the User Manual section in the toolbar to download an offline copy of the manual.
- How do I contact Overview.ai support? Use the Overview Support section in the toolbar to send an email to support@overview.ai.
Recipe Creation & Training
- How do I create a new recipe? From the All Recipes page, click '+ New Recipe', enter a name, select the recipe type, and click OK.
- What are the types of recipes I can create? You can create Classification and Segmentation recipes.
- How do I configure imaging settings? In the Recipe Editor, click 'Configure Imaging' to adjust focus, exposure, gamma, and LED light patterns.
- What is the purpose of the Template Image and Alignment step? It allows you to capture a reference image and align the inspection area; you can also choose to skip this step.
- How do I set up the Inspection Region of Interest (ROI)? In the Inspection Setup, adjust the ROI box to focus on the specific area you want to analyze.
- How many images are needed for training a classification model? A minimum of 5 different images per class is recommended for effective training.
- What training options are available for classification models? You can choose between 'Fast' for quick testing and 'Accurate' for production use, adjusting iterations accordingly.
- How do I monitor training progress? A training progress modal displays the current iteration number and accuracy; you can abort or finish training early if needed.
- How do I view live results after training? Click 'Live Preview' in the Recipe Editor to see real-time classification results.
- Can I configure pass/fail logic for inspections? Yes, use the IO Block in the Recipe Editor to set up logic using Node-RED for pass/fail criteria.
Classification & Segmentation
- What is a Classification recipe used for? Classification recipes are used to categorize images into predefined classes based on visual features.
- What is a Segmentation recipe used for? Segmentation recipes identify and label specific regions within an image, useful for detecting defects or features.
- How do I train a Segmentation model? After setting up imaging and inspection, label the regions of interest and train the model using the provided tools.
- Can I use the same images for both Classification and Segmentation? Yes, images stored in the Library can be used for training both types of models.
- How do I evaluate model performance? After training, review the accuracy metrics and validation results provided in the software.
- Can I retrain a model with additional data? Yes, you can add more labeled images and retrain the model to improve accuracy.
- What is the purpose of the Confidence Threshold in classification? It sets the minimum confidence level required for a classification to be considered valid.
- How do I handle multiple ROIs in a single recipe? You can define multiple ROIs during the Inspection Setup and configure logic for each in the IO Block.
- Can I export trained models? The documentation does not specify model export functionality; contact support for more information.
- How do I delete or deactivate a recipe? In the All Recipes page, use the Actions menu next to the recipe to deactivate or delete it.
Advanced Features & Troubleshooting
- What is Node-RED in the context of OV20i? Node-RED is a flow-based development tool used within the OV20i software to configure inspection logic.
- How do I configure digital outputs for inspection results? Use the IO Block to assign outputs based on inspection results, setting conditions in Node-RED.
- What should I do if the camera is not connecting via Ethernet? Ensure your computer's IP settings are correct and that the Ethernet cable is properly connected; refer to the Electrical and Communication guide.
- How can I reset the OV20i camera? You can reset the camera via the System Settings in the software or by pressing the physical reset button on the device.
