Definitions
- the operator When monitoring a printing web with a video camera, the operator must perform checks on the print image made by the printing press by taking snapshots from the running web using the video camera and controlling the print quality from these recordings. Since areas of a printed image or motif on a moving web can vary depending on the respective position on the printing web, it is necessary to control, for example, the left side of the printed image and then the right side again. For example, when printing stamps, a sheet of approximately 50 stamps is printed in length and width, whereby the print quality of a single stamp at about the left edge of the print image and the print quality of a single stamp on the right edge of the print image must be checked.
- a cursor for example a rectangle
- the actual print image is taken and then the recording is used to check whether the reproduction of the desired area shows a magnification sufficient for the examination. If not, the zoom of the camera must be changed, followed by another shot and determined by this new recording, if the print image in the desired area is sufficiently clearly reproduced.
- This method is by repeated readjustment of the zoom and multiple takes on the printed image time-consuming, since it must be waited before each shot until the desired part of the print image is back in front of the camera.
- a method for checking a print image is also from the document US 4,736,680 known.
- the object of the invention is to provide a method and a device so that in the shortest possible time that region of the printed image can be selected, which is then to be checked.
- this is essentially achieved by not only navigating the cursor to a specific position on the overview image at which a check of the printed image is to be made, but also by simultaneously making a magnification change on the virtual overview image such that the selected region of the printed image is also reproduced in the desired magnification on the overview image itself, so the overview image exactly that area of the print image with the desired magnification reproduces without delay, which is then to be checked on the real print image.
- the magnification setting on the virtual overview image simultaneously changes the optical zoom of the camera according to the setting on the overview image, so that both the position and the zoom of the camera over the current print image are adjusted based on the setting on the overview image.
- pulses as a function of the length and width of the printed image and the like can be determined by a computing device, at which time the selected on the overview image area of the print image appears in front of the camera, so in the calculated time, the camera takes a flash photograph of the real print image in the form as it was predefined on the virtual overview image.
- Fig. 1 1 denotes a monitor which reproduces an overview image of the print image to be produced and an area of the overview image on its screen 1a by means of a cursor 1b can be selected.
- 2 denotes a control and computing unit connected to the monitor 1, which controls a video camera 4 via a line 3, which is arranged above or in front of a running printing or material web 6 in order to record a printed image 9 (FIG. Fig. 2b ) printed on the web 6 by a printing cylinder 7a.
- sensors such.
- a rotary encoder 7 is provided which give signals via a line 8 to the control and processing unit 2.
- Fig. 2a schematically shows a virtual overview image 10, which is displayed on the monitor 1 or a touch screen and the real printed image 9 on the printed material web 6 corresponds.
- the overview image 10 on the monitor 1 shows a high-resolution virtual image of the print image 9.
- This virtual image can be obtained in various ways, for example as a pre-press pdf or bitmap (design area).
- the picture can also be provided by any camera.
- Fig. 2b schematically shows the real printed image 9 on the printed material web 6, wherein on the web 6 successively printed images 9 are printed by the printing cylinder 7a. By an arrow, the direction of movement of the web 6 is indicated.
- the cursor 1b can be navigated to a specific area of the overview image 10, which is then to be checked for its print quality on the real print image 9.
- a control device for example a mouse
- the cursor 1b is displaced into the upper right corner of the overview image 10, whereby the image recording position of the camera 4 over the web 6 in the corresponding area 9a on the real printed image is simultaneously controlled by the control and computing unit 2 connected to the control device, for example mouse 9, as indicated by dashed lines at 9a in FIG Fig. 2b is reproduced.
- the camera 4 can be moved on a moving device, not shown, transversely to the moving material web, because the web width is often greater than the field of view of the camera.
- the control and processing unit 2 receives the parameters from which calculates the position of the camera 4 in relation to the real printed image 9 which corresponds to the position of the cursor 1b on the overview image 10. From the given parameters of the printing machine on the one hand and the dimensions of the printed image 9 on the web 6 on the other hand, the control and computing unit 2 can also specify when the real print image 9 appears in front of the camera 4, so that a flash photography of the camera 4 triggered exactly at the time in which the selected area 9a of the real printed image 9 appears in front of the camera 4.
- the machine operator on the other monitor 5 the recording of the printed image area 9a, which is stored in the buffer 4a, take a look, said in the previous method, the first on acquisition, as a rule, the area to be checked 9a does not reproduce in the clarity and magnification required for optical inspection. Therefore, in the previous method, the zoom of the camera 4 is subsequently adjusted so that the area to be checked 9a can be recorded more clearly and magnified by the camera 4, whereupon again taken a record of this area 9a and then determined on the basis of the new acquisition, whether the reproduction of the area 9a is sufficient for a check of the print quality. If necessary, a further change of the zoom must be made and a further picture taken to obtain on the monitor 5 an image of the area to be checked 9a, which sufficiently clearly reproduces this area for checking the print quality.
- the cursor 1b in Fig. 2a selected range of the overview image 10 on the overview image itself by a magnification switch 1 c set to the desired magnification, which appears to be useful for checking the print quality.
- the area selected on the overview image 10 by the cursor 1b is enlarged in such a way that it covers the entire area Screen 1a of the monitor 1 assumes, this enlarged view in Fig. 3 designated 10b.
- the overview image 10 in FIG Fig. 2a represent a printed image of a stamp block block to be produced, the stamp block z. B. 50 stamps in width and 50 stamps in the length of the real printed image 9 includes.
- the area selected by the cursor 1b in FIG Fig. 2a includes, for example, a single stamp in the upper right corner of the overview image 10, wherein by the magnification switch 1 c an enlargement of this single stamp is carried out so that it occupies the entire area of the screen 1a, as Fig. 3 at 10b shows.
- the zoom of the camera 4 is simultaneously adjusted by the control and arithmetic unit 2 via a line 3a by coupling the magnification switch 1c with the control device 2 in such a way that during a subsequent recording of the selected area 9a on the real printed image 9 by the camera 4, this appears on the monitor 5 in the same magnification as 10b set on the monitor 1.
- the length of the printed image 9 or a corresponding motif on the web 6 can correspond, for example, to 600 pulses of an angular momentum transmitter 7.
- the width of the printed image 9 can be reproduced by an absolute or linear encoder.
- marks on the printing cylinder can be scanned and other sensors such as inductive sensors and the like can be used to obtain the necessary parameters for the control of the camera positioning.
- the camera 4 is also adjusted by position and zoom by the control and processing unit 2 so that in the next step exactly at the time camera 4 can be triggered, in which the selected section 9a of the real print image 9 appears in front of the camera , whereupon the corresponding section 9a of the printed image 9 on the surveillance monitor 5 in the same Playback appears like he is on the overview picture 10b in Fig. 3 previously set.
- a screen may be provided in the form of a touch screen, so that by tapping the selected area continuously enlargement of the overview image 10 while adjusting the zoom on the camera 4 is made, whereupon after reaching the desired magnification touch the touch Screens finished and thus the magnification on the screen 1a and the zoom setting on the camera 4 is set.
- a reduction switch 1d for reducing the selected area 10b on the overview image is also provided on the monitor 1, so that it is possible, for example, to reduce the magnification on the overview image and thus the zoom of the camera from too great a magnification.
- the enlargement of the selected section 1b on the overview image 10 and thus the adjustment of the zoom on the camera 4 is preferably continuously changed. But it is also possible to make a gradual change in the magnification and the zoom, whereby the steps set in the software are chosen to be correspondingly small, so that a desired magnification can be set.
- a switch or a pushbutton can also be provided, by means of which the selected enlargement can be applied to the original overview image 10 (FIG. Fig. 2a ) is reduced, which does not reflect magnification, whereupon starting from the overview image 10, an enlargement of a certain range can be made.
- the software required for continuous or small-scale enlargement of a selected area on the overview image 10 is known per se.
- the control signals of the software used for enlarging the section 1b on the overview image 10 are also used for the adjustment of the zoom on the camera 4 and forwarded by the control device 2 via the line 3a to the camera.
- the overview image. 10 has a dimension of 150 x 150 mm and the printed image 9 has a width of about 2.5 m.
- the machine operator for example, the print quality in the upper right corner at 9a ( Fig. 2b ) on the real print image, the lower left corner of the print image wants to check for print quality, he can move quickly by means of the cursor on the overview image in the area bottom left of the screen, while the tracking of the camera including zoom setting takes a certain amount of time.
- the corresponding area of the virtual print image from the memory in the selected magnification on the monitor 5 is displayed according to a further aspect of the invention by navigating the cursor on the overview image in the lower left corner so the machine operator immediately sees if he has activated the desired area of the printed image.
- a snapshot can be taken as soon as the real print image appears in front of the camera, which is then reproduced on the monitor 5 instead of the virtual printed image area , In such a case, it is indicated on the monitor 5 whether the virtual print image or even the real print image is still being reproduced.
- the reproduction of the real print image on the monitor 5 would not differ from the virtual print image previously fetched from the memory in the selected area at the selected zoom.
- regions of a large print image that are further apart can also be checked quickly, because by the reproduction of the selected region of the virtual print image during the travel time of the camera, the machine operator can already check on the monitor 5 whether the selected region is also the one he is wants to examine, and whether this selected area is displayed in the magnification chosen by him or not, whereupon on the magnification switch 1c a zoom change still on the virtual Print image can be made until the camera is moved to the appropriate shooting area and records the real image in the selected area in the selected magnification so that it can be played on the monitor 5.

Abstract
Description
Bei der Überwachung einer Druckbahn mit einer Videokamera muss der Maschinenführer Kontrollen des durch die Druckmaschine hergestellten Druckbildes durchführen, indem er Momentaufnahmen mittels der Videokamera von der laufenden Druckbahn macht und die Druckqualität anhand dieser Aufnahmen kontrolliert. Da Bereiche eines Druckbildes bzw. Motivs auf einer laufenden Bahn abhängig von der jeweiligen Position auf der Druckbahn unterschiedlich ausfallen können, ist es notwendig, beispielsweise die linke Seite des Druckbildes zu kontrollieren und dann wieder die rechte Seite. So wird beim Drucken von Briefmarken ein Bogen von etwa 50 Marken in der Länge und Breite gedruckt, wobei die Druckqualität einer einzelnen Briefmarke etwa am linken Rand des Druckbildes und die Druckqualität einer einzelnen Briefmarke am rechten Rand des Druckbildes überprüft werden muss.When monitoring a printing web with a video camera, the operator must perform checks on the print image made by the printing press by taking snapshots from the running web using the video camera and controlling the print quality from these recordings. Since areas of a printed image or motif on a moving web can vary depending on the respective position on the printing web, it is necessary to control, for example, the left side of the printed image and then the right side again. For example, when printing stamps, a sheet of approximately 50 stamps is printed in length and width, whereby the print quality of a single stamp at about the left edge of the print image and the print quality of a single stamp on the right edge of the print image must be checked.
Es ist bekannt, ein Übersichtsbild auf einem Bildschirm bereitzustellen, das ein virtuelles Druckbild wiedergibt. Um einen bestimmten Bereich des realen Druckbildes für die Überprüfung auszuwählen, wird auf dem Bildschirm ein Cursor, beispielsweise ein Rechteck, in einen bestimmten Bereich des Übersichtsbildes navigiert, wobei durch diese Navigation des Cursors gleichzeitig die Kamera über der Druckbahn entsprechend verfahren wird. Wenn der Cursor am Übersichtsbild die gewünschte Stelle erreicht hat und damit auch die Kamera an diese Stelle verfahren wurde, wird eine Aufnahme des realen Druckbildes gemacht und dann anhand der Aufnahme überprüft, ob die Wiedergabe des gewünschten Bereiches eine für die Überprüfung ausreichende Vergrößerung zeigt. Wenn nicht, muss der Zoom der Kamera verändert werden, worauf eine weitere Aufnahme gemacht und anhand dieser neuen Aufnahme festgestellt wird, ob das Druckbild in dem gewünschten Bereich ausreichend deutlich wiedergegeben wird.It is known to provide an overview image on a screen that displays a virtual print image. In order to select a specific area of the real print image for the check, a cursor, for example a rectangle, is navigated on the screen to a specific area of the overview image, whereby the navigation of the cursor simultaneously moves the camera over the print path accordingly. When the cursor has reached the desired position on the overview image and the camera has also been moved to this location, the actual print image is taken and then the recording is used to check whether the reproduction of the desired area shows a magnification sufficient for the examination. If not, the zoom of the camera must be changed, followed by another shot and determined by this new recording, if the print image in the desired area is sufficiently clearly reproduced.
Dieses Verfahren ist durch mehrfaches Nachstellen des Zooms und durch mehrfache Auf nahmen des Druckbildes zeitaufwendig, da vor jeder Aufnahme gewartet werden muss, bis sich der gewünschte Teil des Druckbildes wieder vor der Kamera befindet.This method is by repeated readjustment of the zoom and multiple takes on the printed image time-consuming, since it must be waited before each shot until the desired part of the print image is back in front of the camera.
Ein Verfahren zum Überprüfen eines Druckbildes ist auch vom Dokument
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung bereitzustellen, damit in kürzester Zeit jener Bereich des Druckbildes ausgewählt werden kann, der dann überprüft werden soll.The object of the invention is to provide a method and a device so that in the shortest possible time that region of the printed image can be selected, which is then to be checked.
Dies wird erfindungsgemäß im Wesentlichen dadurch erreicht, dass am Übersichtsbild nicht nur der Cursor an eine bestimmte Stelle navigiert wird, an der eine Überprüfung des Druckbildes vorgenommen werden soll, sondern auch zugleich am virtuellen Übersichtsbild eine Vergrößerungsänderung derart vorgenommen wird, dass der ausgewählte Bereich des Druckbildes auch in der gewünschten Vergrößerung am Übersichtsbild selbst wiedergegeben wird, also das Übersichtsbild genau jenen Bereich des Druckbildes mit der gewünschten Vergrößerung unverzögert wiedergibt, der anschließend am realen Druckbild überprüft werden soll. Hierbei wird mit der Vergrößerungseinstellung am virtuellen Übersichtsbild zugleich der optische Zoom der Kamera entsprechend der Einstellung am Übersichtsbild verändert, sodass sowohl die Position als auch der Zoom der Kamera über dem laufenden Druckbild anhand der Einstellung am Übersichtsbild eingestellt wird. Durch Parameter der Druckmaschine wie Drehimpulsgeber am Druckzylinder, Pulse in Abhängigkeit von der Länge und Breite des Druckbildes und dergleichen kann durch eine Recheneinrichtung festgelegt werden, zu welchem Zeitpunkt der am Übersichtsbild ausgewählte Bereich des Druckbildes vor der Kamera erscheint, sodass in dem errechneten Zeitpunkt die Kamera eine Blitzlichtaufnahme des realen Druckbildes in der Form macht, wie es zuvor am virtuellen Übersichtsbild vorgegeben wurde.In accordance with the invention, this is essentially achieved by not only navigating the cursor to a specific position on the overview image at which a check of the printed image is to be made, but also by simultaneously making a magnification change on the virtual overview image such that the selected region of the printed image is also reproduced in the desired magnification on the overview image itself, so the overview image exactly that area of the print image with the desired magnification reproduces without delay, which is then to be checked on the real print image. The magnification setting on the virtual overview image simultaneously changes the optical zoom of the camera according to the setting on the overview image, so that both the position and the zoom of the camera over the current print image are adjusted based on the setting on the overview image. By parameters of the printing press such as rotary pulse generator on the printing cylinder, pulses as a function of the length and width of the printed image and the like can be determined by a computing device, at which time the selected on the overview image area of the print image appears in front of the camera, so in the calculated time, the camera takes a flash photograph of the real print image in the form as it was predefined on the virtual overview image.
Hierdurch ist es einem Maschinenführer möglich, in kurzer Zeit exakt den Bereich eines Druckbildes zu überprüfen, den er für eine Überprüfung der Druckqualität ausgewählt hat, wobei keine Nachstellung des Zooms an der Kamera und keine wiederholten Aufnahmen mehr erforderlich sind.This makes it possible for a machine operator to check in a short time exactly the area of a printed image, which he has selected for a review of the print quality, with no adjustment of the zoom on the camera and no repeated recordings are required.

Mit 5 ist ein weiterer Monitor bezeichnet, der mit der Kamera 4 verbunden ist und eine Aufnahme des Druckbildes 9 wiedergibt, das durch die Kamera 4 aufgenommen wurde. Mit 4a ist ein Zwischenspeicher bezeichnet, in dem die durch die Kamera 4 erzeugte Aufnahme des Druckbildes gespeichert werden kann.With 5 another monitor is designated, which is connected to the
Das Übersichtsbild 10 auf dem Monitor 1 zeigt ein hochaufgelöstes virtuelles Abbild des Druckbildes 9. Dieses virtuelle Bild kann auf verschiedene Weise erhalten werden, beispielsweise als Pdf oder Bitmap der Druckvorstufe (Designbereich). Das Bild kann aber auch durch eine beliebige Kamera bereitgestellt.The
Durch eine nicht dargestellte Steuereinrichtung, beispielsweise eine Maus, kann der Cursor 1b in einen bestimmten Bereich des Übersichtsbildes 10 navigiert werden, der anschließend am realen Druckbild 9 auf seine Druckqualität hin überprüft werden soll. Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach
Die Kamera 4 kann auf einer nicht dargestellten Verfahreinrichtung quer zur laufenden Materialbahn verfahrbar sein, weil die Bahnbreite häufig größer ist als das Blickfeld der Kamera. Durch Auswahl der Bildaufnahmeposition am Übersichtsbild wird zugleich die Kamera auf der Verfahreinrichtung in die entsprechende Bildaufnahmeposition verfahren.The
Durch die bekannte Größe des realen Druckbildes 9 auf der Bahn 6 hinsichtlich Breite und Länge und durch Drehimpulsgeber 7 am Druckzylinder 7a oder andere Sensoren erhält die Steuer- und Recheneinheit 2 die Parameter, aus denen die Position der Kamera 4 im Verhältnis zum realen Druckbild 9 errechnet werden kann, die der Position des Cursors 1b am Übersichtsbild 10 entspricht. Aus den vorgegebenen Parametern der Druckmaschine einerseits und den Abmessungen des Druckbildes 9 auf der Bahn 6 andererseits kann die Steuer- und Recheneinheit 2 auch festlegen, wann das reale Druckbild 9 vor der Kamera 4 erscheint, sodass eine Blitzlichtaufnahme der Kamera 4 exakt in dem Zeitpunkt ausgelöst wird, in dem der ausgewählte Bereich 9a des realen Druckbildes 9 vor der Kamera 4 erscheint.Due to the known size of the real printed
Nachdem eine Aufnahme des Bereichs 9a gemacht wurde, kann der Maschinenführer auf dem weiteren Monitor 5 die Aufnahme des Druckbildbereiches 9a, die im Zwischenspeicher 4a abgelegt wird, in Augenschein nehmen, wobei nach dem bisherigen Verfahren die erste Auf nahme in der Regel den zu überprüfenden Bereich 9a nicht in der Deutlichkeit und Vergrößerung wiedergibt, der für eine optische Überprüfung erforderlich wäre. Deshalb wird bei dem bisherigen Verfahren der Zoom der Kamera 4 nachträglich verstellt, damit der zu überprüfende Bereich 9a deutlicher und vergrößert durch die Kamera 4 aufgenommen werden kann, worauf erneut eine Aufnahme dieses Bereichs 9a gemacht und dann anhand der neuen Auf nahme festgestellt wird, ob die Wiedergabe des Bereichs 9a für eine Überprüfung der Druckqualität ausreicht. Gegebenenfalls muss eine weitere Veränderung des Zoom vorgenommen und eine weitere Aufnahme gemacht werden, um am Monitor 5 eine Abbildung des zu überprüfenden Bereichs 9a zu erhalten, die für eine Überprüfung der Druckqualität diesen Bereich ausreichend deutlich wiedergibt.After a recording of the area 9a has been made, the machine operator on the other monitor 5, the recording of the printed image area 9a, which is stored in the buffer 4a, take a look, said in the previous method, the first on acquisition, as a rule, the area to be checked 9a does not reproduce in the clarity and magnification required for optical inspection. Therefore, in the previous method, the zoom of the

Die Länge des Druckbildes 9 bzw. eines entsprechenden Motivs auf der Bahn 6 kann beispielsweise 600 Impulsen eines Drehimpulsgebers 7 entsprechen. In gleicher Weise kann die Breite des Druckbildes 9 durch einen Absolut- oder Linearwertgeber wiedergegeben werden. Diese Parameter werden in die Steuer- und Recheneinrichtung 2 eingegeben und gespeichert, sodass in Verbindung mit der Drehzahl des Druckzylinders 7a die Position des Druckbildes 9 bzw. des ausgewählten Bereiches 9a vor der Kamera 4 exakt berechnet werden kann.The length of the printed
Anstelle eines Drehimpulsgebers können auch Marken am Druckzylinder abgetastet und andere Sensoren wie Induktivgeber und dergleichen verwendet werden, um die erforderlichen Parameter für die Steuerung der Kamerapositionierung zu erhalten.Instead of a rotary encoder, marks on the printing cylinder can be scanned and other sensors such as inductive sensors and the like can be used to obtain the necessary parameters for the control of the camera positioning.
Während der gewünschte Ausschnitt 1b am Übersichtsbild 10 ausgewählt und in entsprechender Vergrößerung 10b am Monitor 1 wiedergegeben wird (
Anstelle eines Vergrößerungsschalters 1c kann beispielsweise ein Bildschirm in Form eines Touch Screens vorgesehen sein, sodass durch Antippen des ausgewählten Bereichs kontinuierlich eine Vergrößerung am Übersichtsbild 10 bei gleichzeitiger Verstellung des Zooms an der Kamera 4 vorgenommen wird, worauf nach Erreichen der gewünschten Vergrößerung die Berührung des Touch Screens beendet und damit die Vergrößerung am Bildschirm 1a sowie die Zoomeinstellung an der Kamera 4 festgelegt wird.Instead of a magnification switch 1c, for example, a screen may be provided in the form of a touch screen, so that by tapping the selected area continuously enlargement of the
Zweckmäßigerweise wird auch ein Verkleinerungsschalter 1d zur Verkleinerung des ausgewählten Bereichs 10b am Übersichtsbild am Monitor 1 vorgesehen, damit beispielsweise aus einer zu starken Vergrößerung auf einen geringeren Grad der Vergrößerung am Übersichtsbild und damit der Zoom der Kamera zurückgefahren werden kann.Expediently, a
Die Vergrößerung des ausgewählten Ausschnitts 1b am Übersichtsbild 10 und damit die Verstellung des Zooms an der Kamera 4 wird vorzugsweise kontinuierlich verändert. Es ist aber auch möglich, eine schrittweise Veränderung der Vergrößerung und des Zooms vorzunehmen, wobei die in der Software eingestellten Schritte entsprechend klein gewählt werden, damit sich eine gewünschte Vergrößerung einstellen lässt.The enlargement of the selected section 1b on the
Anstelle eines Verkleinerungsschalters 1b kann auch ein Schalter bzw. ein Druckknopf vorgesehen werden, mittels dem die gewählte Vergrößerung auf das ursprüngliche Übersichtsbild 10 (
Die für eine kontinuierliche oder in kleinen Stufen erfolgende Vergrößerung eines ausgewählten Bereichs am Übersichtsbild 10 erforderliche Software ist an sich bekannt. Die für die Vergrößerung des Ausschnitts 1b am Übersichtsbild 10 verwendeten Steuersignale der Software werden auch für die Verstellung des Zooms an der Kamera 4 verwendet und von der Steuereinrichtung 2 über die Leitung 3a an die Kamera weitergeleitet.The software required for continuous or small-scale enlargement of a selected area on the
Anstelle zweier Monitore 1 und 5 kann auch nur ein einzelner Monitor vorgesehen werden, an dem das virtuelle Übersichtsbild 10 und durch Umschalten auch die Aufnahme des realen Druckbildes 9 wiedergegeben werden kann, wobei die Vergrößerung eines ausgewählten Bereiches 1b am virtuellen Übersichtsbild 10 in der gleichen Weise durch Koppelung mit der Steuereinrichtung 2 zu einer Zoomverstellung an der Kamera 4 führt, wie dies zuvor beschrieben wurde.Instead of two
In der Praxis kommt es vor, dass das Übersichtsbild. 10 beispielsweise eine Abmessung von 150 x 150 mm hat und das Druckbild 9 eine Breite von etwa 2,5 m aufweist. Wenn in einem solchen Fall der Maschinenführer, der beispielsweise die Druckqualität in der rechten oberen Ecke bei 9a (
Auf diese Weise können auch weiter auseinander liegende Bereiche eines großen Druckbildes schnell überprüft werden, weil durch die Wiedergabe des ausgewählten Bereiches des virtuellen Druckbildes während der Verfahrzeit der Kamera der Maschinenführer bereits am Monitor 5 überprüfen kann, ob der ausgewählte Bereich auch jener ist, den er begutachten will, und ob dieser ausgewählte Bereich in der von ihm gewählten Vergrößerung wiedergegeben wird oder nicht, worauf über den Vergrößerungsschalter 1c eine Zoomveränderung noch am virtuellen Druckbild vorgenommen werden kann, bis die Kamera in den entsprechenden Aufnahmebereich verfahren ist und das reale Druckbild im ausgewählten Bereich in der ausgewählten Vergrößerung aufnimmt, damit es am Monitor 5 wiedergegeben werden kann.In this way, regions of a large print image that are further apart can also be checked quickly, because by the reproduction of the selected region of the virtual print image during the travel time of the camera, the machine operator can already check on the monitor 5 whether the selected region is also the one he is wants to examine, and whether this selected area is displayed in the magnification chosen by him or not, whereupon on the magnification switch 1c a zoom change still on the virtual Print image can be made until the camera is moved to the appropriate shooting area and records the real image in the selected area in the selected magnification so that it can be played on the monitor 5.
