4.16  Method 2: Perform Teaching for Each Manipulator

4-38

12 Select a job to be registered 

as root job.

The root jobs for subtask 1 and subtask 2 are registered.

13

 

Select the synchronous task 

of subtask 1.

 

14 Select “SUB2.”

Specify SUB2 of leader task to synchronize the synchronous task 

of subtask 1.

15 Select “Single job operation 

mode.”

Set “Single job operation mode” for the operation mode at FWD 

operation.

Pressing [SHIFT] + [SMOV] switches the operation mode.

16 Select {JOB} under the main 

menu.

 

17 Select {JOB}.

18

Press the page key 

 to 

chage to leader subtask.

*

Each time the page key 

 is pressed, the contents of the JOB 

CONTENT window change in order of master task, subtask 1, 

and subtask 2.

19 Move the cursor to the step 1.

20 Press [FWD].

21

 

Press the page key 

 to 

change to the leader subtask.

Each time the page key 

 is pressed, the contents of the JOB 

CONTENT window change in order of master task, subtask 1, 

and subtask 2.

22 Register the step 1 of follower 

subtask.

After the FWD operation of step 1 of leader, switch to follower and 

register the  position of the follower manipulator relative to the 

station current position.

23 Register the step 2 and 

onward of follower subtask.

 Change to the leader’s JOB CONTENT window and perform 

FWD operation to the next step.

To maintain the follower manipulator position relative to the sta-

tion, press [SHIFT] + [SYNCRO/SINGLE] to set the job syn-

chronized mode.

 Change to the follower’s JOB CONTENT window, and register 

the follower manipulator position relative to the station current 

position.

Teach the follower job by repeating the above operations 

 and 

.
