[558] Discrete Application
Discrete Applications Platform (DAP) is a software platform for time critical
applications, where certain actions shall be performed at specific robot positions.
Target users are advanced application software engineers and system integrators, e.g.
for spot welding, drilling, measuring, quality control. The main advantages are
achieved in the following areas:
- Development time
- Program execution time.
- RAPID- program memory needed
- Similar “look and feel” between applications
- Tested kernel software
Features
• Specialized RAPID instructions and datatypes.
• A single instruction for motion and process execution.
• Combination of fine point positioning with execution of up to 4 parallel processes.
• Specialized process for monitoring of external process devices, like spot welding
controllers.
• Supports encapsulation of the process and motion, in shell-routines provided to the
end-user.
• The Advanced Functions option is included in DAP.
Application
Creation of software for advanced applications with a discrete behaviour, such as spot
welding, drilling, measuring, quality control.
Performance
C-code kernel and RAPID calls.
The DAP platform is designed to have an internal kernel, administrating the fast and
quality secured process sequence skeleton. The kernel calls RAPID routines, which are
prepared by the application writer to fulfil the specific tasks. The application developer
regulates the degree of flexibility of the end-user.
Requirements
There are no other requirements than S4CPlus cabinet and BaseWare.
