Installation variables

These can be used by multiple programs and their names and values are persisted together
with the robot installation (see

1.23.10. Installation

→

Variables on page 134

). Installation

variables keep their value after the robot and control box has been rebooted.

Regular program variables

These are available to the running program only and their values are lost as soon as the
program is stopped.

Variable types

bool

A boolean variable whose value is either

True

False

int

A whole number in the range from − 2147483648 to 2147483647 (32 bit).

float

A floating point number (decimal) (32 bit).

string

A sequence of characters.

pose

A vector describing the location and orientation in Cartesian space. It is a combination
of a position vector (

) and a rotation vector (

) representing the orientation,

written

p[x, y, z, rx, ry, rz]

list

A sequence of variables.

1.24.4. Command: Move

The

Move

command controls the robot motion through the underlying waypoints. Waypoints have

to be under a Move command. The Move command defines the acceleration and the speed at
which the robot arm will move between those waypoints.
