Instructions for use and warnings
To set the various handling parameters of the Flexibowl®, use the volatile support register 1. Use the following command to
perform this operation:
Command
Action
Description
RL1 Value
Support register 1 = Value
Enter a value in the support register.
Example: RL1 100 enter value 100 in the volatile register 1
Parameters:
Non volatile

Range
1
Acceleration used for each subsequent Move command.
250
1 - 500
2

1 - 500
3
Speed, in RPM, at which the Flexibowl® will advance at each
subsequent Move command.
250
1 - 500
4
Angle by which the Flexibowl® will advance at each subsequent
Move command.
45
-360 - 360
5
Acceleration used for each subsequent movement of the Shake.
250
1 - 500
6
Deceleration used for each subsequent movement of the Shake.
250
1 - 500
7
Number of movements, in alternate directions, that are made with every
Shake instruction.
Example: sh_count=3 means that the Flexibowl® will move
counterclockwise at an angle of ccw_angle, clockwise at an angle of
cw_angle, for 3 times.

subsequent Flip command.
50
positive
13
Air Blowing time, in milliseconds.

Example:
If you want to set the acceleration of the Flexibowl® movement, you will have to send the following commands:
• “Chr(0)+Chr(7)+RL1 100 in ASCII character vectors+Chr(13)” for the volatile register to assume the value 100;
• “Chr(0)+Chr(7)+RW11 in ASCII character vectors+Chr(13)” to transfer the contents of volatile register 1 to permanent
register 1 which corresponds to the acceleration of the “Move” command;
