Motion Analysis by Monitor

The following describes how to use Epson RC+ to check the operation results of a force guide sequence.
Display the [Force Guide] window.
Click the sequence flow of [PegInHole].
Select the [Monitor] tab. Select the [Force] tab. Force and position during the [PegInHole] sequence execution are displayed in the graph.
image Click the object flows of [Step1], [Step2], and [Step 3] to display the force and the position during the execution of the selected force guide object.

Click the sequence flow of [PegInHole]. Select the [Monitor] tab. Select the [1D Pos] tab. Graph for analysis is displayed. (horizontal axis: Time, vertical axis: Position)
image Select the [2D Pos] tab. Graph for analysis is displayed. (horizontal axis, vertical axis: Position) Focus on the blue line. You can see that the robot enters into a hole while the spiral probe motion and the motion switches to the pressing motion. Then, the robot moves to -Z direction and moves (follows) inside the X, Y plane.

Select the [Pos Diff] tab. Record shifts by force control as relative position changes. It is different from the graph on the [1D Pos] tab.
image Change the unit of the graph and check the changes of force or positions.
Look the monitor shown by Tutorial and check the motion results. since the robot nearly entered a hole in [Step2]; however, it could not move downward more than 0.5mm, which is set in the position setting of [Plane Z].
