Program entry
YAMAHA SRC language | |
---|---|
MOVA 1 , 100 | Move to point No. 1 at 100% of speed. |
DO 1 , 1 | Turn general-purpose output No. 1 to ON. |
WAIT 2 , 1 | Wait until general purpose input No. 2 turns ON. |
YAMAHA BASIC language | |
---|---|
IF DO(10)=1 THEN ・界ND | Jump to *END if general-purpose input No. 10 is ON. If not ON, then proceed to next line. |
MOVE P, P2, STOPON DI(1) =1 | Move to point No. 2. Stop if general-purpose input No. 1 is ON during movement. |
WAIT ARM | Wait until robot arm operation ends. |
P3=WHERE | Write the current position in point No. 3. |
・界ND: | Define the label with the 窶廢ND窶・name. |
HOLD | Pause the program. |
Single-axis robot controllers use the YAMAHA SRC language Note which is simple yet contains all required functions such as I/O outputs and conditional branching, etc. The multi-axis controller RCX series uses the YAMAHA BASIC language capable of more sophisticated programs and includes all types of arithmetic computations, flexible setting of variables and various conditional branching, etc. Both are easy to use robot language conforming to BASIC. These match all manner of needs from simple beginning operations to sophisticated expert user tasks.
Note.The 2-axis controller DRCX also uses YAMAHA SRC language.
The host device specified a point No. in binary and the robot moves to that point No. when a start signal is input. The controller can operate just by teaching the point data and does not need a program.
This uses CC-Link or DeviceNet word functions to issue various data or commands to the robot. It makes full use of word function expandability ranging from simple operation instructions to writing of point data and other sophisticated instructions and allows fully and flexibly using robot controller functions from a host device.
Note. These functions are operable when selecting the option network board.
A pulse train sent from the positioning unit controls the robot. The controller does not have to handle programs or point data. This control method is convenient when one wants to concentrate control in a host or upstream device.
A PC connected via RS232C or Ethernet Note can be used to issue various commands and data directly to the robot controller or receive data and status. All operations performed from a teaching pendant can be executed from a PC.
Note.Ethernet is operable by selecting the option network board.

Note. Some models do not support all networks.
