4.2 The difference between MELFA-BASIC V and MELFA-BASIC IV
4.2.1 About MELFA-BASIC V
By the CR7xx series controller, MELFA-BASIC V is mounted in the robot programming language. It is easier
to use MELFA-BASIC V than conventional MELFA-BASIC IV.
Explains the difference in the following
4.2.2 The feature of MELFA-BASIC V
MELFA-BASIC V has the following features as compared with MELFA-BASIC IV.
(1) The line number is unnecessary The conventional line number is automatically added as a step num-
ber. Thereby, operation of giving the line number is unnecessary and the efficiency of programming
improves. And the loss in debugging by the mistake of the line number will be reduced.
(2) Usage of the small letter is enabled at the command, the variable name, etc. Thereby, the readability
improves sharply.
(3) The command and the function were added and the function was improved.
4.2.3 Comparison with MELFA-BASIC IV
Comparison of MELFA-BASIC V and IV is shown in Table 4-2.
