Jump Method

Description
Moves the arm from the current position to the specified point using point to point motion while first moving in a vertical direction up, then horizontally and then finally vertically downward to arrive on the final destination point.

Syntax
Sub Jump (PointNumber As Integer)
Sub Jump (Point As SpelPoint)
Sub Jump (Point As SpelPoint, AttribExpr As String)
Sub Jump (PointExpr As String)

Parameters
Each syntax has one parameter that specifies the end point which the arm travels to during the Jump motion. This is the final position at the end of the point to point motion.
PointNumber Specifies the end point by using the point number for a previously taught point in the Controller's point memory for the current robot.

  • Point
    Specifies the end point using the SpelPoint data type.
  • AttribExpr
    Specifies the end point attributes using a string expression.
    It can contain a C arch number, LimZ, CP, SYNC, Sence, Till or Find search expression, and parallel processing statements.
  • PointExpr
    Specifies the end point using a string expression.
    It can contain a C arch number, LimZ, CP, SYNC, Sence, Till or Find search expression, and parallel processing statements.

Remarks
If an error occurs and the ErrorNumber property of the SpelException is 3101, see the remarks in the SetPoint method.

Jump Example
VB Example:

' Points specified using point numbers  
m_spel.Tool(1)  
m_spel.Jump(100)  
  
' Points specified using SpelPoint  
Dim pt As SpelPoint  
pt = m_spel.GetPoint("P*")  
pt.X = 125.5  
m_spel.Jump(pt)  
  
' Points specified using expressions  
m_spel.Jump("P0 /L /2")  
m_spel.Jump("P1 :Z(-20)")  
m_spel.Jump("P1 C0")  
m_spel.Jump("P1 C0 LimZ -10")  
m_spel.Jump("P1 C0 Sense Sw(0)=On")  
  
' Using parallel processing  
m_spel.Jump("P1 \!D50; On 1; D90; Off 1\!")  
  
' Points specified using labels  
m_spel.Jump("pick")  

C# Example:

// Point specified using point number  
m_spel.Tool(1);  
m_spel.Jump(100);  
  
// Points specified using SpelPoint  
SpelPoint pt;  
pt = m_spel.GetPoint("P0");  
pt.X = 125.5;  
m_spel.Jump(pt);  
  
// Points specified using expressions  
m_spel.Jump("P0 /L /2");  
m_spel.Jump("P1 :Z(-20)");  
m_spel.Jump("P1 C0");  
m_spel.Jump("P1 C0 LimZ -10");  
m_spel.Jump("P1 C0 Sense Sw(0)=On");  
  
// Using parallel processing  
m_spel.Jump("P1 \!D50; On 1; D90; Off 1\!");  
  
// Points specified using labels  
m_spel.Jump("pick");
