SETUP SERVO ROBOT SCREEN


SETUP SERVO ROBOT SCREEN

Before using the Servo-Robot Sensor, you must set sensor system parameters correctly.

Table 1.  Servo-Robot Sensor Setup items

ITEM DESCRIPTION

Use Rotator

This item defines whether the system has a rotator. If a rotator is installed, select TRUE. If a rotator is not installed, select FALSE. The servo-robot sensor does not support a sensor rotator, so this item should be FALSE.

Track Fail DO

This item defines the Digital Output that will be turned ON when the Track Failure occurs. The Track Failure is defined as one of the following alarms MIGE-027 Can't detect joint continuously MIGE-034 Path points too close MIGE-036 Track calculation fault MIGE-037 No MIG EYE data in buffer MIGE-038 Can't calculate track offset MIGE-039 Offset is too large. A setting of zero disables this feature. (RESET will turn this output OFF)

Search Fail DO

This item defines the Digital Output that will be turned ON when a Search error occurs. A setting of 0 disables this feature. (RESET will turn this output OFF)

Laser Status DO

This item defines the Digital Output that will be turned ON when the Laser Status DI is ON and ready.

Laser Status DI

This item defines the Digital Input that will be turned on when the Servo-Robot sensor is on.

Track Cir Axis Num

This item specifies any auxiliary axis used to rotate the work piece when stationary tracking is executed. If the first axis in auxiliary axis setup rotates the work, set this item 1. The value of this item can be 1, 2 or 3. NOTE: Adaptive Welding currently does not support stationary tracking

Record Pitch for RPM

This item specifies the record pitch for Root Path Memorization function (RPM). The unit of this setting is decided in the RECORD PITCH MODE FOR RPM VARIABLE. The minimum value is 3mm or 150msec.

Record Pitch Mode RPM

This item specifies the unit of setting of RECORD PITCH FOR RPM. The mode is selected by length (mm) or time (msec) by the function key.

Joint ID for Laser ON

This item specifies the schedule number used for turning on the laser during search. This is not currently used.

Tracking Error Recovery

This item enables sensor error recovery when a sensor error occurs.
