Warning
Mandatory network requirements
The Gigabit Ethernet interface is mandatory and requires a compatible Gigabit Ethernet network infrastructure and Ethernet cables of at least Cat6 or Cat7 category with S/STP shielding.
Failure to comply with this requirement completely jeopardises the camera’s operation. Check that all network components (cables, switches, ports) support the GigE standard.
Power supply methods#
Tip
Which method should be chosen?
PoE: ideal for clean installations with only one cable, but requires specific network hardware
External power supply: more flexible standard solution, recommended for most applications

Laser Tool for Calibration#
The Laser Tool is an advanced calibration solution that improves the precision with which the robot reference point is saved. The main benefit of the laser is that it does not require physical contact with the calibration grid. Acting as a high-precision pointer, the laser allows the operator to align the target point visually and repeatably on the grid, offering a degree of accuracy far superior to using a physical tip. This precision is essential for calibration success and integrates perfectly with the repeatability guaranteed by the ARS Dedicated Calibration Grid.

Accuracy of Reference |
Maximum precision; the operator visually aligns the point with accuracy. |
Medium, subordinate to the operator’s view |
Easy to Use |
It simplifies the visual alignment procedure. |
It requires greater attention in positioning and avoiding tilting. |
Key advantage |
It allows the robot reference point to be saved with the highest possible fidelity, which is essential for final picking accuracy. |
Basic method, but less precise than laser. |

Important
The bracket for mounting the Laser Tool in place of the robot tool is NOT supplied, as it varies for each robot and must be customised.
Tip
The use of the Laser Tool in combination with the ARS Dedicated Calibration Grid is the strongest and most accurate method for installing the FlexiVision One system
Calibration grid#
Excellent calibration is the basic requirement for the accuracy of the FlexiVision One system. Only high-precision calibration ensures that the coordinates detected by the camera (pixels) are accurately converted into the actual robot coordinates (millimetres), thus ensuring the success of the picking application.
