Steps in Writing Robot Programs
The following shows the WINCAPS III work flow for writing a program and validating its operation.
Step 1
Load WINCAPS III.
Step 2
Create a project.
Step 3
Write robot program.
Step 4
Teach operation positions.
Step 5
Compile executables.
Step 6
Send data to robot controller.
Step 7
Test program operation (debug).
Step 8
Back up data.
Step 9
Exit WINCAPS III.
Step 1: Load WINCAPS III.
Launch WINCAPS III.
For further details, refer to Chapter 3 "Starting Up/Shutting Down" (P. 13).
Step 2: Create a project.
This project contains all necessary data for the target robot.
For further details, refer to Chapter 4 "Creating a Project" (P. 50).
Step 3: Write robot program.
Write the robot operation program using the built-in editor.
For further details, refer to Chapter 5 "Writing Programs" (P. 70).
Step 4: Teach operation positions.
Specify operation positions by manipulating the virtual robot in the Arm 3D view window.
For further details, refer to Chapter 6 "Arm 3D View Window" (P. 90).
Note
Using simple modeling and importing 3D data creates an on-screen simulation for specifying the robot's operation range and detecting collisions with surrounding equipment.
