10 The Simulation Tab
10.3 Simulation Setup
10.3 Simulation Setup
Overview
The Simulation Setup dialog box is used to perform the following two main tasks.
•
Setting up the sequence and entry point in the robot program
•
Creating simulation scenarios for different simulated objects
Prerequisites
To set up a simulation, the following conditions must be met:
•
At least one path must have been created in the station.
•
The paths to be simulated must have been synchronized to the virtual
controller.
The Setup Simulation dialog box
The Setup Simulation dialog box consits of the following two tabs,
•
Program Sequence
•
Simulation Scenarios
Program Sequence
From this tab, you can perform the combined task of configuring the program
sequence and program execution such as entry point, and running the execution
mode.
The Program Sequence tab consists of the following:
Select Active Tasks
Displays all running IRC5 controllers in the station along with
the tasks.
Execution Sequence
<Task Name>
Displays the procedures in the main entry routine of the task.
The sequence of the procedures shows the sequence of execution.
<-
Click the arrow left button to transfer the selected procedure
to the Main Sequence box.
The procedure will be added last to the sequence.
X
Click this button to remove the selected procedures or sequences from the Main sequence box.
arrow up
Click the arrow up button to move the sequence up in the list
in the Main Sequence box or in the Available Procedures box.
arrow down
Click the arrow down button to move the sequence down in
the list in the Main Sequence box or in the Available Procedures box.
Available Procedures
Displays all procedures available in the controller.
These procedures can be added to the execution sequence.
