Starting or Opening an EasyBuilder Job
Starting a new job:
- Ensure that the vision system is not Online.
- Click the New Job button in the Load Job group box or press CTRL+N, both of which open the New Job dialog.
- In the New Job dialog, click Yes to clear all data from the current job. (If you want to save the data, click No in the dialog, press CTRL+S and complete the "save" process before starting a new job.)
The name of the new job will not display in the Current Job: field in the Sensor Information group box until the job is saved and named.
Opening a current job:
- Ensure that the vision system is not Online.
- Click Open Job in the Load Job group box or press CTRL+O, both of which open the Open dialog.
- In that dialog, navigate to the job.
- Double-click on the job, or select it and click Open.
- The Load File dialog appears; in that dialog, click Yes to clear all data from the current job. (If you want to save the data, click No in the dialog, press CTRL+S and complete the "save" process before opening a job.)
The name of the opened job will display in the Current Job field.
Note:
- The Job files created on the In-Sight 2000 series vision sensors are not compatible with those created on any other In-Sight models.
- An "EasyBuilder Only" vision system cannot open EasyBuilder jobs that have been edited in the Spreadsheet View.
- EasyBuilder cannot modify jobs created in the Spreadsheet View of In-Sight Explorer. If a spreadsheet job is opened, the remaining Application Steps become disabled. You can, however, work on the job from within the In-Sight Explorer environment by clicking Spreadsheet on EasyBuilder's View menu.
- If an EasyBuilder job was created using In-Sight 4.7.3 or earlier and loaded to a vision system running In-Sight 5.x.x firmware, symbolic tags (EasyBuilder tags) within the job may be removed.
