Fig. 165 Robot configuration interface

The robot configuration page consists of two sections:

Hand-eye calibration

The hand-eye calibration card informs you about the current state of the Hand-eye calibration wizard and allows you to open it.

Three variants of the interface are possible:

  • No hand-eye calibration performed (Fig. 166)

Fig. 166 No hand-eye calibration performed

  • Hand-eye calibration in progress (Fig. 167)

Fig. 167 Hand-eye calibration in progress

  • Hand-eye calibration already performed (Fig. 168)

../../_images/handeye_calibration_already_performed.png

Fig. 168 Hand-eye calibration already performed

If the hand-eye calibration was already performed, some information regarding last hand-eye calibration is available:

  • Last calibration date

  • Calibration recipe

  • Part height

  • Calibration accuracy

Access hand-eye calibration wizard

Click on START HAND-EYE CALIBRATION WIZARD or OPEN HAND-EYE CALIBRATION WIZARD to access the Hand-eye calibration wizard.

TCP Configuration

This section allows you to select a different end of line delimiter. This might be required depending on your robot and/or PLC.

../../_images/robot_config_tcp.png

Three different options are available:

  • LF, end of line delimiter is the special character LF (i.e \n, ASCII code 0x0A)

  • CR + LF end of line delimiter is the special character CR + LF (i.e \r\n, ASCII codes 0x0D 0x0A)

  • CR end of line delimiter is the special character CR (i.e \r, ASCII code 0x0D)

The default end of line delimiter used by EYE+ Controller is LF.

Note

When changing this setting, any opened connection will be forcefully terminated.

Fieldbus Module

The Fieldbus Module card shows different information related to the optional Fieldbus Module.

../../_images/robot_configuration_fieldbus.png

  • Module type, type of the module (i.e. the Fieldbus technology supported)

  • Ethernet port 1, Information related to the Ethernet port 1 (next to LEDs).

  • Ethernet port 2, Information related to the Ethernet port 2.

  • Other(s), various other information related to the specific Fieldbus Module installed.
