Microscan AutoVISION: Connecting to a PLC Over EtherNet/IP Using Microscan Link

This video demonstrates steps for connecting an AutoVISION inspection job to an external control system - in this case, an Allen-Bradley PLC. First, a connection with AutoVISION and the Vision HAWK smart camera must be established in the PLC software. Then, using AutoVISION's Microscan Link feature, inspection tool parameters can be linked between the PLC software and the AutoVISION job to enable commands to be communicated over EtherNet/IP from the PLC to the AutoVISION smart camera.
