6.6.2 Move to a Robot Position
The procedure to move to Robot positions is similar to that of the panel
described in chapter 2.4.8“ Move to Position Panel”.
6.6.3 Edit a Robot Position
Follow the steps below to edit a Robot Position:
1. Press the {Edit Position} checkbox. This will enable fields and controls
according to:
– Required security level.
– Write access level of position (editable vs non-editable)
2. Select a {Robot Position} from the dropdown list
– Current axis values will update accordingly.
3. Edit the position using one of the methods below:
– Enter values into enabled field(s) using the numeric keyboard
– Use {Set To X.X} button(s) to set individual axes to the current
position of the manipulator
– Use {Set to Current Position} to set all axes to the current position of
the manipulator
4. Once change(s) are present, a {Save All/Cancel} control will appear.
{Save All} will save changes to an edited position while Cancel will
default to previously saved values.
– The “Temporary” position is editable, but Save/Cancel does not
apply. Axis values will default to zero on the YRC Controller reboot.
When approaching any position near other physical objects,
reduce speed and use caution to prevent collisions. Pay
close attention to the motion of the manipulator.
• In the event of “singularity” alarms, reduce speed and
use individual {Move Axis} buttons to move to a target
position without error.
• Failure to observe these instructions may result in
personal injury or collisions with the manipulator.
