Step Thru Teach Screen
Use extreme caution while using the Step Thru Teach screen, as
all outputs on this screen are live and can generate instantaneous
unexpected moves of the robot and attached equipment.
The Step Thru Teach screen enables the user to quickly program schedules for robot
applications only. The Step Thru Teach screen is an extension of the Teach screen illustrated in
the previous section.
Step Thru Teach is a feature that allows the MicroView to step a robot through the welding
procedure while teaching each set point. This feature requires the robot program to be waiting for
each position output before proceeding to the next step.
One benefit with this feature is that putting the robot in a teach mode is not necessary. The Step
Thru Teach will walk the user through each position, the user will hit the Teach button when the pin
is at correct position, and the MicroView will then set that output HIGH. This procedure continues
until all four positions (P1, P2, P3, P4) are taught, bringing the user back to the User Setting menu
after saving the settings.
