Note: The edit key can display the edit program screen, but other functions cannot be used except for changing the position and speed values.3. Remote Controller The remote controller is a peripheral device connected to the robot controller, used to set up the system, including the following forms:1) User Control Panel2) PLC3) Host Computer4. Monitor and KeyboardThe external monitor and keyboard are connected to the controller via RS-232C and can execute almost all TP functions. Functions related to robot operation can only be implemented through TP.5. Communication1) One standard RS-232C interface (external), two optional RS-232C interfaces (internal)2) One standard RJ45 network interface6. Input/Output I/O Input/Output signals include the following:1) External Input/Output UI/UO2) Operator Panel Input/Output SI/SO3) Robot Input/Output RI/RO4) Digital Input/Output DI/DO (512/512)5) Group Input/Output GI/GO (0 to 32767, up to 16 bits)6) Analog Input/Output AI/AO (0 to 16383, 15-bit digital)Input/Output devices have the following 3 types:1) Model A2) Model B3) Process I/O PC board, among which the Process I/O board can use the most signal lines, up to 512.7. External I/O External signals are used to send and receive signals from remote controllers or peripheral devices, capable of executing the following functions:1) Select programs2) Start and stop programs3) Recover the system from alarm status4) Others8. Robot MotionThe R-J3/R-J3iB controller can control up to 16 axes, with a maximum of 3 groups, each group can control up to 9 axes. The operations of each group are independent of each other. The robot moves based on the teaching or motion instructions in the program. During teaching, the robot’s movement is based on the current coordinate system and teaching speed. When executing the program, the robot’s movement is based on position information, motion mode, speed, termination method, etc.9. Emergency Stop Devices* 2 emergency stop buttons (one on the operation box panel, one on the TP panel)* External emergency stop (input signal) The input terminal for external emergency stop is located in the controller or operation box.1) One standard RS-232C interface (external), two optional RS-232C interfaces (internal)2) One standard RJ45 network interface10. Additional Axes Each group can have up to 3 additional axes (in addition to the robot’s 6 axes). Additional axes have the following 2 types:1) External axes that are controlled independently of the robot’s motion and can only move at joints.2) Internal axes that are controlled together with the robot during linear or circular motion.
