The Group drop-down list is used to select the current group. The Detail drop-down
list is used to select the detail to be run.
Starting the system
To start the system, click the Operation icon. Then in the drop-down lists under
Camera, select the FlexLoaderVisionLite group, select the correct detail and click
Start. The specified program is now loaded and the robot will start automatically
if set to auto mode.
If the robot is not in auto mode, the following dialog box will appear when you click
Start.
xx1800000274
If you want to continue with the robot in auto mode, put the robot in auto mode
and click OK.
If you want to continue with the robot running at reduced speed, click Manual. Note
that FlexLoader Vision does not load the program that is specified for the detail if
you select Manual, instead the correct program must be loaded and started
manually.
We recommend to start the system at least once with the robot in auto mode in
order to load all modules correctly.
Note that the program must be started from the beginning.
Stopping the system
To stop the system, click Stop in FlexLoader Vision. If the robot is in Auto mode,
it will also be stopped. Note that clicking Stop does not make the robot stop
immediately. Instead it will stop at the end of its cycle or after a certain time. To
stop the robot immediately, you must use the stop button on the robot or, if an
emergency situation has arisen, use the emergency stop.
If FlexLoader Vision is configured so that the robot should control the stop situation,
the stop button behaves differently. In this case FlexLoader Vision does not actively
stop the robot when the operator clicks Stop. Instead, only DOF_EndCycle is sent
to the robot, whereupon FlexLoader Vision awaits the robot to call the procedure
StopFlexLoader Vision which in turn will stop everything as usual (as described
above).
In case the user clicks Stop in FlexLoader Vision again, while FlexLoader Vision
is awaiting the call to StopFlexLoader Vision, FlexLoader Vision will enforce a
stop. This means that FlexLoader Vision will no longer be waiting for the robot, but
will instead stop as usual (as in the case where FlexLoader Vision is configured
to control the robot stop).
