Configure an Articulated Independent Robot Chapter 4
Define Configuration Parameters for a SCARA Independent Robot
Logix Designer application can be configured for control of robots with
varying reach and payload capacities. As a result, it is very important to know
the configuration parameter values for your robot including:
•Link lengths.
• Base offsets.
• End-effector offsets.
The configuration information is available from the robot manufacturer.
Figure 38
illustrates the typical configuration parameters for a SCARA
Independent robot.

IMPORTANT Verify that the values for the link lengths, base offsets, and end-effector
offsets are entered into the Configuration Parameters dialog by using the
same measurement units.
