Known Issues

National Instruments is aware of the following issues you may encounter while using Vision Builder AI.

General

Vision Builder AI behaves unexpectedly or may not display an inspection image if the image is large and your computer is low on available memory.
If you configure a step to pass or fail based on pixel distances and subsequently calibrate the image, the step will compare calibrated values against pixel-based limits.
When connected to a remote target in the Configuration interface, the TCP Communication Terminal is not updated if you select an Operate»Run Inspection option.
When connected to a remote target in the Configuration interface, the Serial Communication Terminal is not updated if you select an Operate»Run Inspection option.
When connected to a remote target, the Configuration interface does not execute the Cleanup state.
After connecting to a remote target and starting an inspection in the Vision Builder AI Configuration interface, if you lose communication and reconnect to the target, the inspection opens in the Vision Builder AI Inspection interface.

LabVIEW Project Integration

(LabVIEW 2010) You can create a new VI in the context of a remote target added in Vision Builder AI Mode. A VI created in this context cannot run or support shared variables. If you try to add a shared variable to the VI, the VI generates an error message indicating that the target does not support shared variables. Always create a VI in the context of My Computer or a remote target added in LabVIEW Real-Time Mode.

Windows Firewall

If you are using the Windows Firewall, you may notice the following behavior:

Microsoft Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2003, or Windows XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2) or later installed
