Move Method

Description
Moves the arm from the current position to the specified point using linear interpolation (i.e. moving in a straight line).

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

Parameters
Each syntax has one parameter that specifies the end point which the arm travels to during the Move motion. This is the final position at the end of the linear interpolated motion.
PointNumber
Specifies the target point using a previously taught point number from the current robot point memory stored in the controller

  • Point
    Specifies the target point using the SpelPoint data type
  • AttribExpr
    Specifies the end point attributes using a string expression.
    It can contain ROT, ECP, CP, SYNC, Till or Find search expressions, and parallel processing statements.
  • PointExpr
    Specifies the target point using a string expression
    It can contain ROT, ECP, CP, SYNC, Till or Find search expressions, 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.

Move Example
VB Examples:

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

C# Example:

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