3.4.6 Teach Screen
The {Teach} Screen (Fig.3-33 "MLX200 Robot HMI Teach Screen") allows
the user to jog the robot in a variety of methods as well as teach positions.
A brief overview of the functionality on this screen:
• The Jogging Mode can be switched between Axis and TCP
depending on the desired mode of operation.
• In TCP mode, the Coordinate System can be chosen from World,
Tool or User.
• The Jog Speed allows four different default values for: Inch, Slow,
Medium, and Fast.
• The Job Number and Teach Point Number can be entered via the
numerical inputs, and then when the [Teach Position] button is
pressed this data will be copied and stored into the
ApplicationData.Job[x].TeachPoint[y] tag where it can later be
accessed from an application.
• The [Jog To Point] button can be used to jog to the current selected
Teach Point for touching up or replacing a previously taught position.
This button will highlight when the Taught Point is reached.
• The [Jog To Home] button can be used to jog the robot to a position
of all zeros. This button will highlight when the Home Position is
reached.
• [Release Limits] button that can be used to job the robot out of a limit
violation.
• The IZ Indicator in the bottom right can be used to track the status of
a single Interference Zone that is entered in the numeric input.
