ACLoff-line
ACLoff-line is a preprocessor software utility, which lets you access and use
your own text editor to create and edit ACL programs even when the controller is
not connected or not communicating with your computer.
After communication is established, the Downloader utility lets you transfer your
program to the controller. The Downloader detects the preprocessor directives,
and replaces them with a string or block of ACL program code.
ACLoff-line also enables activation of ATS, Advanced Terminal Software, for
on-line programming and system operation.
ACLoff-line is described fully in the ACLoff-line User’s Manual.
SCORBASE Software
SCORBASE Level 5 is a robot control software package which is supplied on
diskette with the controller. Its menu-driven structure and off-line capabilities
facilitate robotic programming and operation.
SCORBASE runs on any PC system and communicates with ACL, the
controller’s internal language, by means of an RS232 channel.
The SCORBASE Level 5 for Controller-B Reference Guide provides detailed
descriptions and examples of the SCORBASE commands.
