Abstract
To enables realization of an image data collection function, a bank switch function and the like at low cost in a juxtaposedly placed type sensor system for handling an image, such as a visual sensor or a displacement sensor, by introduction of the minimum required number of new units into an existing system.A first operation of storing image data acquired by a sensor controller from a sensor head and/or measurement data obtained by processing the image data, into a non-volatile record medium of a data storage unit, and/or a second operation of writing the setting data having been stored into the non-volatile record medium of the data storage unit, on a bank memory inside the sensor controller unit, are made possible.
