d. Go to Main Menu > System > Communications > Data Export > Advanced.
During the Data and Image export operation the sensor's output channels might become full. This can
occur if the sensor is producing export data (frames) faster than the data can be exported from the device
(due to bandwidth limitations) or faster than the client is reading the channel export data.
This setting affects how the sensor will behave in this situation.
•
Select Hold READY to ensure that all frames are transmitted. In this case, the READY signal will
remain inactive (sensor is busy) until the new frame has been added to the channel for
transmission. Triggers might be missed during this time.
•
Select Do not hold READY to cause the sensor to discard the new frame if the channel is full and
thus activate the READY signal immediately after the current inspection is complete. In this case,
the discarded frames will not be transmitted.
Communications Channel Ports
The following are the default Ethernet port settings for the communications channels:
•
Command Channel — 32200
•
Data Export — 32100
•
Image Export — 32000
8.2.2 Setting Up Serial Communications
1. Electrically connect the control device and the iVu sensor. On the iVu, the pins/wire colors used for serial
communications via RS-232 are shown in the table below.

2. Configure port settings (baud rate, data bits, parity, and stop bits) on the iVu to match the settings on the control
device. Go to Main Menu > System > Communications > Serial I/O.
