Setup

  • Launch File Setup

    User has to configure camera parameters and app settings via the launch file available in app data

User and Authentication

  • Login

    Available via KVP because the app has to be launched from KVP

  • User

    Managed in KVP with support for admin, supervisor, and operator roles

Defect Detection & Inspection Settings

  • Recipe Management

    Allows user to add, edit, and delete recipes. Each recipe contains an associated model, and the defect category is automatically assigned based on the model. Users can group recipes, set size sensitivity and thresholds, and if a defect meets the condition, it is not allowed and considered for cut planning. The recipe also includes region continuity and region thresholds

System Health

  • Camera Health

    Shows the health of each camera, including its meter and inference time

  • PLC Health

    Shows the health of KWIS PLC and remote PLC

  • App Health

    Shows app health status (idle, running, engaged)

  • Display Storage Remaining

    Shows the remaining disk space in the system

Data Dashboards

  • Meter and Defect Analysis Live

    Shows the total inspected meter and total defects identified

  • Cloud Dashboard

    With support from the data compute node and data sync module, the system syncs data to the cloud and displays the Looker dashboard, including inspection data, review data, and repair data

  • Width Analysis Live

    Shows the current measured width live and the time taken

Logs & Activities

  • System Logs

    System stores the error logs with code

  • User Activity

    System records user activity into system logs as an activity

  • Component State Logs

    All software and hardware components store the (available, connected, running, fault) states in the component state log

Inspection and Management

  • Add Roll Details

    User can enter roll ID, GSM, width, roll weight, roll length, loom ID, layer type before inspection starts

  • Jog Distance

    Machine will slow down for defects before the jog distance to stop the defect

  • Add Width Tolerance

    Minimum and maximum width tolerance can be specified

  • Button Based Roll Start

    Inspection starts and stops based on button press, with roll ID automatically generated from timestamp

  • Roll Continue

    Inspection continues from the previous stopped location with the same roll ID

System Alerts and Logs

  • Meter Variation Alert

    System has an auxiliary encoder that compares with the software meter and generates an alert if variation is found

  • PLC Communication Alert

    If communication fails between PC and PLC, the system retries three times; if still not connected, it generates an alert

  • DB Disconnection Alert

    If the software cannot store data into the database, it retries three times; if still not connected, it generates an alert

  • Buzzer on Defect Identification

    System gives a beep when a defect is identified

  • Red Light

    Red light is shown constantly when the system is stopped until the user acknowledges

  • SMS Alert

    System sends SMS alerts for critical defects to specified numbers

  • Storage Remaining

    System generates a popup when storage on the master system is nearly full

Real Time Machine Control

  • Fabric Map

    The fabric map updates in real time, showing each camera and its covered region. It also displays region planning with projected body lines, camera and stop positions, and defect locations mapped to the real world

  • Stop at Defect

    Machine stops at defects for repair at the specified location

  • Stop at Width Variation

    Machine stops at width variations for analysis at the specified location
