When to use VisionGuard:
- When Cognex In-Sight vision sensors are used and a pre-configured GUI is desired.
- When multiple In-Sight sensors are on a single system.
- When an integrated job management interface is required.
- When improved system security is required.
- VisionGuard© provides a protected-access front-end interface and audit-trail capability for Cognex’s® In-Sight® Vision Sensors, ---providing the features needed to allow B&L to validate In-Sight®-based vision systems used on the production line.
VisionGuard© does not interfere with the operations or the actual programming of the vision sensors. It provides an interface environment used to ensure properly controlled security access and the recording of any operational activities and changes made to a validated In-Sight® installation to create an audit trail. The In-Sight® Vision Sensors still operate as designed and programmed, receiving triggers, providing inspections, and outputting results and signals. VisionGuard© is a VAIA product that provides a powerful and rich user environment that provides the means to address pharmaceutical, medical, and industrial validation requirements, providing improved access control and In-Sight® event and application change traceability. It provides the logging and reporting of all Vision Sensor activities and spreadsheet changes to enable the In-Sight® sensors to be part of a validated installation. VisionGuard© has evolved over many years of use in VAIA projects. While VAIA does not provide validation services and VisionGuard© is not pre-validated, B&Ls who require validated installations can use VisionGuard© to provide many of the access controls and audit trail functions that are required for an In-Sight® Vision Sensor system to be part of a validated solution.
