c. IO
- The set output on or set output off buttons allow you to insert a
line of code that will turn Arduino IO of your choice on or off (see
bottom on input outputs tab for available IO pins on the Arduino
Mega). For example, if you have a pneumatic gripper you would
hook up your solenoid per the wiring harness manual to output
Arduino pin #38 and ender a line of code "Out On = 38" to
control your gripper.
d. Navigation
You can create as many program routines as you like. Enter the
name of the program you would like to create in the program field
and press "load program", if the program does not already exist it
will be created, if you have already created a program of that name
it will be loaded. Programs are created in your AR2 software folder
and can be deleted from that file location if no longer needed.
- The "Call Program" button allows you to insert a line of code that
calls a program.
- The "Return" button inserts a line of code that will allow the
called program to return to the program it came from. *note you
cannot call another program from within a program that has already
been called, you must return to the main program before calling
another program. For example, you will likely want to create a
program called "Main" from that program you might call a program
called "Pickup Part" at the end of pickup part you will want to
insert a "Return" line to get back to the "Main" program, then you
can do other things or call other programs. You cannot call another
program from "Pickup Part" you must first return to the main
program.
