Using the Edges Counting Tool

Once the tool has been added, you will need to configure the region in the image that will define where to detect the edge(s):

Position and configure the region over the area of the edge features and make sure that the boundaries of the region cover the edges and their possible locations. Pay special attention to the scan direction arrows on the region to ensure that the region is positioned to optimize the detection of your desired edges.

To help the performance of the tool, create smaller regions; larger regions take longer to inspect. If you’re not using a fixture, ensure that the edges are present in roughly the same location in every image, or the region is large enough to account for the expected movement of the features.

Press the OK button to confirm the region (press the Cancel button to not add the tool to the job).
With the tool initially configured, load several images and adjust the tool's parameters, as needed, to compensate for your expected ranges of variations.
Finally, if desired, use the tool's Input/Output properties to share tool data between other tools and/or other external devices.
