o_jointtarget Original joint position data
Description
Components
o_jointtarget (original joint target) is used in combination with the function Absolute
Limit Modpos. When this function is used to modify a position, the original position is
stored as a data of the type o_jointtarget.
If the function Absolute Limit Modpos is activated and a named position in a movement
instruction is modified with the function Modpos, then the original programmed position
is saved.
Example of a program before Modpos:
CONST jointtarget jpos40 := [[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
[0, 9E9, 9E9, 9E9, 9E9, 9E9]];
...
MoveAbsJ jpos40, v1000, z50, tool1;
The same program after ModPos in which the point jpos40 is corrected to 2 degrees for
robot axis 1:
CONST jointtarget jpos40 := [[2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
[0, 9E9, 9E9, 9E9, 9E9, 9E9]];
CONST o_jointtarget o_jpos40 := [[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
[0, 9E9, 9E9, 9E9, 9E9, 9E9]];
...
MoveAbsJ jpos40, v1000, z50, tool1;
The original programmed point has now been saved in o_jpos40 (by the data type
o_jointtarget) and the modified point saved in jpos40 (by the data type jointtarget).
By saving the original programmed point, the robot can monitor that further Modpos
of the point in question are within the acceptable limits from the original programmed
point.
The fixed name convention means that an original programmed point with the name
xxxxx is saved with the name o_xxxxx by using Absolute Limit Modpos.
robax (robot axes) Data type: robjoint
Axis positions of the robot axes in degrees.
