2 Machine Synchronization

2.4.6. Drop sensor object

473HAC18154-1 Revision: F

2.4.6. Drop sensor object

Overview

For Sensor Synchronization, a connected object may be dropped, with a

DropSensor

instruction, once the synchronized motion has ended.

Example:

DropSensor SSYNC1;

For Analog Synchronization, DropSensor must not be used.

Considerations

The following considerations must be considered when dropping an object:

• It is important to make sure that the robot motion is no longer using the sensor position

when the object is dropped. If robot motion still requires the sensor position then a stop

will occur when the object is dropped.

• As long as the

SyncToSensor \Off instruction has not been issued, the robot motion

will be synchronized with the sensor.

• It is not necessary to be connected in order to execute a

DropSensor instruction. No

error will be returned if there was no connected object.
