Predefined data<br />

iz (inertia z) Data type: num<br />

The moment of inertia of the load around the z’-axis, expressed in kgm 2 .<br />

For more information, see ix.<br />

PERS loaddata piece1 := [ 5, [50, 0, 50], [1, 0, 0, 0], 0, 0, 0];<br />

The payload in Figure 1 is described using the following values:<br />

- Weight 5 kg.<br />

- The centre of gravity is x = 50, y = 0 and z = 50 mm in the tool coordinate system.<br />

- The payload is a spot load.<br />

Set gripper;<br />

WaitTime 0.3;<br />

GripLoad piece1;<br />

Connection of the payload, piece1, specified at the same time as the robot grips<br />

the load piece1.<br />

Reset gripper;<br />

WaitTime 0.3;<br />

GripLoad load0;<br />

Disconnection of a payload, specified at the same time as the robot releases a<br />

payload.<br />

The payload should only be defined as a persistent variable (PERS) and not within a<br />

routine. Current values are then saved when storing the program on diskette and are<br />

retrieved on loading.<br />

Arguments of the type load data in the GripLoad instruction should only be an entire<br />

persistent (not array element or record component).<br />

The load load0 defines a payload, the weight of which is equal to 0 kg, i.e. no load at<br />

all. This load is used as the argument in the instruction GripLoad to disconnect a payload.<br />
