How it works

The KLA UV 1050 system incorporates Cognex 3100 and Cognex 5400 machine vision boards.[2]

Why won't it start?

Documented failure modes, common issues, and field considerations.

  • Focus adjustments may take longer than expected.
  • Solenoid for field illumination shutter requires a specific Molex connector and may not be electronically connectable.
