Stalling image display

Error pattern

The image display in the ADS Image Watch and camera assistants occasionally stalls.

Solution 1

Remote Desktop Protocol

In individual cases it is possible that the Remote Desktop Protocol and the network card do not work well with the transfer from the TwinCAT Vision development environment or the image display tools.

Work either locally and connect yourself with the target in TwinCAT or work directly on the target computer.

Error pattern

Not all images are displayed in the ADS Image Watch and camera assistants.

Solution 1

Reduction of the data quantity

As the images are retrieved from the controller by ADS in order to display them, it may be the case in particular with large images, high frame rates or several ADS Image Watch windows that not all image data can be retrieved.

Therefore reduce the number of images to be displayed simultaneously, reduce the frame rate or the data quantity per image by using ROIs.
