Disclosed are an image capture apparatus in which an arrangement relationship between an image sensor and a microlens array that is arranged in front of the image sensor can be varied, and a method for controlling the same. A defining section 11 defines correspondence relationships between all of plant data and softwares displaying the corresponding plant data. The data gathering device is adapted to generate and send, to an SES processor responsible for the enclosure, a message reporting the state of the data inputs and to receive, from the responsible SES processor, a message including a command determining the state of one of the controllable outputs. A p-type conductivity region is provided beneath the gate between the source and the drain. When the container is full, the vacuum is stopped, such that the weight of the product in the container pushes the door open for discharge of the discrete volume of product sample, while product remaining within the sampler tube is discharged back into the bed of material within the machine. The load bearing assembly has a main body for attachment to a support, and a support layer capable of being operably attached to the main body and having an exposed bearing surface to act supportingly against a conveying belt.
