Before changing a limit, collect recent real failures, older good images from the line, and recent good images spanning normal variability.

Three folders labeled older production good, recent good, and recent real failures converge on a comparison of appearance, pose, scores, timing, and result identity.
D19. Older known-good production images establish history. Recent good images show current normal variability. Recent real failures show the disputed condition. Record the job version and original results where possible so the comparison is interpretable.

Factory samples are a weak baseline because they freeze the process at buyoff. Compare the piles in reverse milestone order: HMI, I/O, math, tools, fixture, image. Watch the custom-view beacon beside the image and note whether fails track light, position, part appearance, or cycle time. Then add temporary acquisition in a scratch copy: delay lines, charts, overlay graphics, on-screen values, and timers. Insert rows or use the right margin so the diagnostics do not collide with the job. Setpoint changes should stay inside ranges justified by a study. Retraining a pattern or character model needs a copy of the old model first. If the old model carried an angle, the new train resets that angle to zero, so the previous offset has to be restored as a constant or robot continuity breaks.
