How to Use an SMB Shared Folder

How to use an SMB shared folder for In-Sight 2800/In-Sight 3800

28/02/2025

Question

What is the use of an SMB shared folder?

Answer

SMB is a convenient way to share a folder from the camera to a network PC, for example to share jobs or images.

Once the configuration is made according to this guide:

In-Sight® Vision Suite Help - Configure SMB - Documentation | Cognex

is possible from a Windows or Linux system to access to the related shared folder.

This is valid even for a Scada sw, to allow users to load jobs or recipes into the camera.

In this way is possible to mantain jobs in a single server on a PC and load them in every camera with a SMB shared folder.
