Viper.NET Licensing

A Viper.NET license contains a number of features. Depending on the activated features, certain modules are unlocked. The licensing is usually done with a dongle. As an alternative, soft licenses are supported.

Features

  • Basic: Starting Viper.NET

  • Vision: Image Processing Plugin

  • Automatic: Control of a job by external hardware

  • Feeder: Connection of material feed components (Anyfeeder)

  • Halcon: Halcon functionality in the image processing plugin (Halcon image sources, Halcon - VisionPro Tools)

  • HUD: Plugin for the inspection of head-up displays

  • PinCheck: PinCheck VisionPro Tools

  • ProcessPositions: Control of axes

  • 3D Tools: Gefasoft 3D VisionPro Tools

Other licenses

The Image processing plugin (Vision) uses Cognex Vision Pro and therefore requires a valid Cognex Vision Pro license. If the Halcon plugin is activated, a valid license from MVTec-Halcon is required here as well.
