August 24, 2023 - v2.6.45
The newest version of LandingEdge offers these new features:
Roles and Permissions
Often, LandingEdge is deployed to a shared computer, such as a machine on a manufacturing floor. Several users might access both the machine and LandingEdge. To prevent users from accidentally changing Inspection Points or stopping the inspection process, LandingEdge now offers Roles to limit who can access different parts of the system:
- Admin: Can access and edit all parts of LandingEdge.
- Engineer: Can access and edit all parts of LandingEdge except for editing Role permissions.
- Operator: Has read-only access.
If LandingEdge has been idle for 15 minutes, the current user is logged out of the Role. You can then enter a password to log in as an Admin or Engineer. Or, you can log in as an Operator, who by default has read-only access.
To manage Roles in LandingEdge, go to Settings > Permissions.

Do I need to do anything now that there are Roles?
If you would like to use Roles, set up the passwords for the Admin and Engineer Roles. For detailed information, go to Roles and Permissions.
If you don't plan on using Roles—for example, if LandingEdge runs on a computer that only one person has access to—you don’t need to set up passwords or any of the Permissions settings. If you don’t set a password for any of the Roles, you won’t be logged out after the Idle Time.
Assign GPUs to Inspection Points
When setting up an Inspection Point, you can now assign one or more specific GPUs from your system to power the Inspection Point. This helps free up your CPU for other processes. For more information, go to GPUs and LandingEdge.

Configurations
You can now set up multiple configurations for each Inspection Point. A configuration is the collection of settings for the Inspection Point. Set up multiple configurations if you want to switch between settings without changing the Inspection Point itself.
If you're using a PLC, you can set it up to automatically switch between configurations. For more information about using a PLC with LandingEdge, go to PLC Workflow.
If you're not using a PLC, you can manually change the configuration in the LandingEdge interface.
Configurations are managed in the Configuration field at the top of the Inspection Point settings.
Configurations
If You Don't Need Multiple Configurations
If you don't need multiple configurations for an Inspection Point, ignore the Configuration field.
July 11, 2023 - v2.5.10
We've added more custom scripting capabilities to LandingEdge. You can now read out the raw scores from a Classification model. We've also introduced the AllClasses
Dictionary, which provides access to all names and indices of all Classes in the model. For more information, go to Custom Processing.
Here is a sample C# post-processing script for reading out the raw scores from a Classification model:
public void Run()
{
if (Result.PrimaryResult is not ClassificationResult clf)
{
// not a classification result
// this script is only applicable to classification, so exit the script
return;
}
Log($"All classes in model: {string.Join(", ", AllClasses)}");
Log($"Class scores for image: [{string.Join(", ", clf.Predictions.RawScores)}]");
for (int i=0; i<AllClasses.Count; i++)
{
Log($"Class '{AllClasses[i].Name}' score = {clf.Predictions.RawScores[i]}");
}
}

What's New
- The Settings icon is now permanently on the LandingEdge homepage, even if you haven’t created any Inspection Points yet. Previously, you could only access Settings after setting up an Inspection Point.
This makes it easier to get your License Key, which you can access in Settings > Update License.Click the Settings Icon - We've made it easier to see when your license will expire. If your license will expire within 120 days, a message on the Settings page notifies you how many days are left until the expiration date.Previously, if the license expired within 120 days, that notification would always be “Your license will expire in less than 120 days.”
Countdown Until Your License Expires
- If you try to upload an invalid license, you now get a pop-up letting you know that the license isn’t valid.
- To make it easier to understand some of the features, we updated some of the user interface text throughout LandingEdge.
Bug Fixes
- We fixed a bug that caused issues when stopping inspections in some situations.
- We fixed a few broken external references in our C# scripts.

The latest release of LandingEdge makes it much easier to activate your Deployment License. Most notably, you can now get a 14-day free trial of LandingEdge! This is the perfect way to vet LandingEdge for your deployment needs.
What’s New

Get Trial License
- LandingEdge now notifies you when your LandingEdge Deployment License will expire within 120 days, so that you can request a new license. LandingEdge also notifies you once your license has expired. Once you have your updated license, click the notification to add your license to LandingEdge.
License Expiring Soon
- You can now update your LandingEdge license even if your current license is still valid. Previously, you could only add a LandingEdge license if your previous one was expired. With this new workflow, you can now avoid lapses to your LandingEdge functionality.
Update License
- If you’ve enabled the Upload Results to LandingLenssetting, images uploaded to LandingLens via LandingEdge now have image metadata. The metadata follows this format:
{ "imageId": "28587.jpg", "inspectionStationId": "11", "locationId": "California#11", "captureTimestamp": "2021-10-11T12:00:00.00000" }
- If you’ve enabled the Upload Results to LandingLens setting, you can run a script to automatically skip saving certain images. For more information, go here.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a bug that caused changes to Inspection Point names to not save. LandingEdge now correctly saves changes to Inspection Point names.
- Fixed a bug that caused the PLC information to not display in the Communication settings. The information displays correctly now.
