Mechanical unit
These parameters belong to the topic Motion and the type Mechanical unit.
Single type
This parameter belongs to the topic Motion and the type Single type.
Transmission
This parameter belong to the topic Motion and the type Transmission.
Path Sensor Synchronization
These parameters belong to the topic Motion and the type Path Sensor Synchronization. They
are used to set allowed deviation between calculated and actual position of the external
device, and minimum/maximum TCP speed for the robot.
Parameter Description
Name The name of the unit (max. 7 characters).
Activate at start up The sensor is to be activated automatically at start up.
Deactivate Forbidden The sensor cannot be deactivated.
Parameter Description
Mechanics Specifies the mechanical structure of the sensor.
Parameter Description
Rotating move Specifies if the sensor is rotating (Yes) or linear (No).
Parameter Description
Max Advance
Distance
The max advance distance allowed from calculated position to
actual position of the external device.
Max Delay Distance The max delay distance allowed from calculated position to actual
position of the external device.
Max Synchronization
Speed
The max robot TCP speed allowed in m/s.
Min Synchronization
Speed
The min robot TCP speed allowed in m/s.
