Setting Up the Color Match Tool

The basic setting operation flow of the Color Tool is as follows.

 

  1. Add a Color Tool to the image area.

  2. Switch the inspection mode from [Color ID] to [Color Match].

  3. Adjust the area on the image to enclose the object whose color you want to identify.

  4. Press the training button to teach color information.

  5. After teaching, evaluate with some test images to check whether the intended color judgment is achieved. If you do not get proper results, re-train the color information or adjust the color information using a color editor.

  6. If you want to adjust the color detection accuracy or speed, adjust the color match setting conditions. See the Color Inspection Tool - Setting Parameters section for more information on the Color Editor and setting conditions.

 

White Balance

Please Perform white balance as necessary when using the color inspection tool. Normally, there is no problem with the initial conditions preset at the factory, but if you want to use a specific white object as a reference, execute white balance. The white balance parameter will be a common parameter for all tools.

For more information on white balance, see the White Balance section.
