Pallet: #palletFlag (1 – 100), #palletCount (1 – 100)
#palletCount (1 – 100) is a numeric variable and #palletFlag (1 – 100) is a Boolean variable.
Each variable retains the value of the corresponding pallet counter and pallet flag (1 (true) when the
pallet counter is full) in additional function data [Pallet Routine].
By using these variables, you can move to the next point during a pallet job or skip the designated
pallet.

Description
#palletFlag (1 – 100)
Pallet flag (Corresponds to Pallet 1 – 100.)
Pallet
#palletCount (1 – 100)
Pallet counter (Corresponds to Pallet 1 – 100.)

#palletFlag (1 – 100) does not become “1” (true) even if a value which fills the counter is assigned
to #palletCount (1 – 100).
For example, you can skip a designated pallet during a pallet job.
The robot picks up a workpiece at P1, places it on a pallet (set at P2) and moves to the next point (P3) when
the pallet becomes full. However, there are two points (P2-5 and P2-11) on the pallet where a workpiece is
not placed.
In this example, the [Pallet Routine Number] is [3] and the tool unit is connected according to the
following settings:
Picking up a workpiece:
#handOut1 is ON.
Placing a workpiece:
#handOut1 is OFF.
Points where a workpiece is not placed
