■ Outline
This is handy software that fully uses the personal computer functions. It can be used in
various stages from the robot specifications study (tact study, etc.) to the design support
(creation and editing of programs), start up support (execution, control and debugging of
program), and maintenance (remote maintenance.)
The "personal computer support software" which supports these function fully, and the
"personal computer support software mini" which does not have the simulation function
are available. Select according to the required application.
■ Configuration
Table 3-43 ： Product configuration
■ Features
(1) Simple operation with guidance method and menu method
The Windows standard is used for windows operation, so the controller initialization and startup operations
can be carried out easily by following the instructions given on the screen. Even a beginner can easily carry
out the series of operations from program creation to execution.
(2) Increased work efficiency with ample support functions
The work efficiency is greatly improved with the multi-window method that carries out multiple steps and dis
-
plays in parallel. The renumbering function, and copy, search, syntax check and step execution are especially
sufficient, and are extremely useful when editing or debugging the program.
With the simulation function support, the program can be debugged and the tact checked before starting the
machine at the site. This allows the on-site startup work efficiently to be greatly improved.
(3) Increased maintenance efficiency with remote maintenance function
With remote operations over a telephone line, the robot's operation status can be monitored without going to
the site. Losses incurred while moving to the site can be reduced, and the time required to investigate the
trouble and determine measures to be taken can be shortened.
(4) The maintenance forecast function increases the efficiency of maintenance work. Analyze the load condition
while the robot is actually operating. Based on this analysis, calculate the time for maintenance, such as lubri
-
cation and belt replacement. By utilizing this information, the line stop time as well as the maintenance costs
can be reduced.
Note) The maintenance forecast function is supported by Personal Computer Support Software Version E1 or
later.
(5) The position recovery support function increases the recovery efficiency in the event of origin position dis
-
placement. This function compensates the origin settings and position data by just reproducing several previ
-
ous teaching points when hand and/or arm displacement occurs, when replacing the motor and the belts, or
when reloading the robot. This function can reduce the time required for recovery.
Note) The position recovery support function is supported by Personal Computer Support Software Version
E1 or later.
