Figure A-3. Example System Disk Configuration in CONFIG_C
The module name, such as “LMMV X/Y/Z/Theta Robot Control Module,” is extracted
from the device module. When you first transfer a device module to your system file, a
default module name such as those shown. Later, you can change the name with the “Edit
start-up message” menu selection in the SPEC program. The module name for each
selected device module is displayed whenever the system is booted up, as shown in
Figure A-4.
Figure A-4. Typical Multirobot System Initialization Messages
The module list in Figure A-3 indicates that there are three copies of module #32, the
LMMV X/Y/Z/Theta robot, on this particular system disk. The module numbers, which
are part of the “Robot (number): (model#)-(serial#)...(module#)” display in the
initialization messages, as shown in Figure A-4, are listed in the documentation you
receive with your device modules.
