How to teach points
Teaching a robot point means that you are defining a location for the robot to move to
using the current robot position.
Follow these steps to teach points from the Robot Manager:
1. Select the point file you are teaching points for by using the
Point File dropdown list
box on the
Points page.
2. On the
Jog & Teach page, select the point number you want to teach in the Teach
Points
control group in the lower right corner of the window.
3. Jog the robot to the desired position or free some or all axes and manually move the
robot into position.
4. Click on the
Teach button. This will retrieve the robot's current position and store it in
the coordinates for the point. If the Prompt for New Point Data preference is active,
you will be prompted for a point label and description.
Point labels can include up to 32 alphanumeric characters and the underscore character.
Characters can be upper case or lower case. Only alphabets can be used for the first
letter.
5. As an alternative to clicking the
Teach button, on the Points tab you can type in the
coordinates of the point.
