ArmCalib Statement

Enables or disables arm length calibration for the robot currently selected.

Syntax
ArmCalib On | Off

Parameters

On | Off

Select On to enable arm length calibration. Select Off to disable arm length calibration.

Description
The ArmCalib On instruction enables arm length calibration. Execute ArmCalib On to set the calibration value specified using ArmCalibSet to Arm 0, and switch the Arm to 0.

The ArmCalib Off instruction disables arm length calibration. Execute ArmCalib Off to set the standard parameters to Arm 0. Note that the Arm will not switch automatically when ArmCalib Off is executed.

Arm length calibration is enabled by default when purchasing the Arm Length Calibration Option.

Even when arm length calibration is enabled, switching to an Arm other than 0 will use the settings configured for the Arm number set.

Robot parameter data is stored in the compact flash memory in the controller. Therefore, writing to the compact flash memory occurs when executing this command. Frequent writing to the compact flash memory affects the lifetime of the compact flash memory. We recommend limiting the use of this command at a minimum.

Note

---

• This command is only available when the Arm Length Calibration Option is installed.

• Do not restore backup files with ArmCalib On on a controller that has the Arm Length Calibration Option disabled.

  Attempting to restore backup files with ArmCalib On on a controller that has the Arm Length Calibration Option disabled will automatically set ArmCalib Off. Keep this in mind when restoring to a separate controller.
