The unit is fully equipped with industrial grade inputs and outputs.
A visible LED light is coupled to each connection which reflects the active state of the signal.
The I/O, together with all external interfaces, is conveniently accessible on the front of the unit facing the user.

The software is well equipped and suitable for a range of quality control applications, including assembly verification, part identification, measurements, flaw detection and object location.
Each of the inspection tools have been carefully designed to extract the relevant information from the object image.
