Abstract
A system for inspecting a substrate. An inspector includes a sensor that inspects the substrate and produces a video stream. A control interface sends and receives a control stream, and a network receives and transports the video stream and the control stream as two separate data streams. A desktop receives the video stream and the control stream as two separate data streams. The desktop has a display that presents the video stream, and a user interface controls that control the operation of the inspector, using the control stream across the network.
