Sampler - PSM
From VersaVision Support
Samplers are Monitoring Points that can be setup to capture data (Item, Number, Barcode, etc.) and record it along with keeping a tally.
Example: An Operator scans a unit number when the unit is started and/or finished.
This page will provide information on each property required to setup a Sampler.
To access the Sampler setup, the user will need to select an existing Sampler under Monitoring Points or select to Add a new Sampler.
