Chapter 1: Introduction

1.1 Product Description

The SmartVision MX is a Windows®7 Embedded industrial PC designed to run ACE soft-

ware. It is compatible with the SmartController line of products, or can be used with our robots

that don’t use a SmartController.

For inspection applications, the SmartVision MX industrial PC is designed to be a “plug-and-

play” vision system. Using a USB or GigE camera, along with ACE’s PC-based vision soft-

ware, the unit is a complete industrial vision solution.

When used with a SmartController, the SmartVision MX provides expanded vision processing

power for vision-guided robotics or inspection.

What Comes with a SmartVision MX?

Hardware

The SmartVision MX includes:

lIntel®Core i7

l8 GB DDR3 memory

l64 GB mSATASSDdrive

The drive is partitioned into a C: drive and a D: drive. By default, the C: drive uses a

file-based write filter, to protect the Windows operating system and ACE software. We

recommend that you leave this write filter enabled for C: in normal use.

Because the OS and ACE software are on C:, you should be very cautious about using C:

for any other purpose, particularly for other applications.

lMatching connector for VDC input power

lA USB license dongle, which enables licenses for one or more of the following:

oACESight software, 2 camera support (ACE 3.7+ license does not restrict number

of cameras)

oACE PackXpert, 1 controller support (ACE 3.7+ license does not restrict number

of controllers)

oACE PackXpert with ACESight software, 2 camera and 1 controller support

(ACE 3.7+ license does not restrict number of controllers or cameras)

oAny additional camera or controller licenses that you purchased

oOther licenses can be purchased to increase the number of cameras and con-

trollers supported(ACE 3.6 or earlier)

Chapter 1: Introduction

1.2 How Can I Get Help?

What Doesn’t Come with a SmartVision MX?

l24 VDC power supply to power the SmartVision MXindustrial PC (see External Power

Supply on page 18).

lCameras and camera cables

lKeyboard, mouse, and monitor

These should be user-supplied, so you can run the ACE and ACESight applications,

and well as control shutting down the industrial PC.

lIf power interruption is a concern, a UPS is recommended (see External Power Supply

on page 18).
