ZEISS INSPECT scripting help — inspection start/end lifecycle and results extraction

[[Ne...]]

Hello

I’m looking for guidance on scripting in ZEISS INSPECT + Kiosk, specifically around the inspection execution lifecycle.

 

I’m trying to understand the correct scripting/API approach for the following:

 

• setting the parameters for an inspection
• identifying the exact point where the actual inspection/evaluation starts
• determining exactly when that process has finished
• collecting/extracting the resulting inspection values

 

More specifically, I want to know:

 

1. What is the recommended entry point in ZEISS INSPECT scripting for starting an inspection or evaluation?
2. Is the start call synchronous or asynchronous?
3. If asynchronous, what is the recommended way to detect completion:
   • polling status
   • callback/event hook
   • kiosk workflow hook
   • other mechanism
4. What API objects/functions should be used to read the final results after completion?
5. Are there example scripts or documentation pages that demonstrate this full flow:
   • set parameters
   • start inspection/evaluation
   • wait for completion
   • read/export results

 

 

If there is official documentation, API reference material, or example scripts covering this workflow, I’d appreciate being pointed to them.

 

Thank you,
Neta
