## Using AutoTune Execution

The AutoTune button
, places your computer into AutoTune execution mode.

AutoTune execution allows you to conveniently teach illumination, magnification, and image processing parameters of your part program commands for the target optical machine.

You should use this mode when you move your part program from one computer to another, or when you are ready to execute an offline prepared part program in an online environment. If you are running an offline part program in online mode for the first time, PC-DMIS Vision automatically enters AutoTune execution. It needs to do this because during offline preparation, PC-DMIS uses simulated lighting which may not match the actual lighting behavior on the target machine.

In summary, you may want to execute your part program using AutoTune execution when you have the following conditions:

- You move a part program from one machine to another.

- You need to run a part program in online mode that was prepared in offline mode.

- You change hardware components that affect the lighting, such as lamps.

- Lighting conditions of the room where you have your optical machine changes.

- You want to change the magnification setting for a number of features in one operation, rather than individually, feature by feature.

You will find that there are slight differences between different hardware systems and, over time, even within the same hardware system. AutoTune execution addresses these issues.
