MC_SetBufferPreset

To preset buffermode.

Graphic expression FB category
Ver.5.5 Ver.5.35
Non motion

Input and Output Variable

Variable name Data type Valid range Default Omission (*)
AxesGroup eRC_AxesGroup No
Robot Group
Specify a robot variable (structured type data : eRC_AxesGroup) of user-defined type.

Input Variable

Variable name Data type Valid range Default Omission (*)
Execute Boolean
  • TRUE : Start
  • FALSE : -
FALSE No
Execution start
When the variable is changed from FALSE to TRUE, this FB is executed.
BufferMode Integer 0, 1, 6, 7, 8, 9 0 No
Buffer mode selection
Specify how to connect motions when this FB is executed when the robot is in motion.
The process flow of each buffer mode is as follows:
[0 : Aborting OP0]
  1. The robot decelerates at 100% deceleration.
  2. The robot stops (End motion).
  3. This FB motion is executed.
[1 : Buffered]
  1. The robot moves to the current target position.
  2. The robot stops (Encoder value check motion (Axes coordinate system)).
  3. This FB motion is executed.
[6 : Blending]
  1. The robot moves to the vicinity of the current target position.
  2. The robot executes the motion end method specified in the input Variable "TransitionMode".
  3. This FB motion is executed.
[7 : Aborting OP1]
  1. The robot decelerates at 100% deceleration.
  2. The robot does not stop (Pass motion).
  3. This FB motion is executed.
[8 : Aborting OP2]
  1. The robot decelerates at the current deceleration.
  2. The robot stops (End motion).
  3. This FB motion is executed.
[9 : Aborting OP3]
  1. The robot decelerates at the current deceleration.
  2. The robot does not stop (Pass motion).
  3. This FB motion is executed.
TransitionMode Integer 0, 3, 10, 11 0 No
Transition mode selection
Specify how to end the current motion when "6 : Blending" is selected in the input variable "BufferMode". The end method for each value is as follows:
[0 : The robot stops (Encoder value check motion (Axes coordinate system))]
[3 : The robot does not stop (Pass motion of distance designation)]
If 3 is selected, specify a distance to start the pass motion in the input Variable "TransitionParameter".
[10 : The robot does not stop (Pass motion)]
[11 : The robot stops (Encoder value check motion (Cartesian coordinate system))]
TransitionParameter Integer 0 to 32767 0 No
Target position
Specify a distance to start the pass motion when "3 : The robot does not stop (Pass motion of distance designation)" is selected in the input variable "TransitionMode". Unit is millimeter.
When the distance between the robot position and the current target position is below the value of this variable ("TransitionParameter"), the pass motion starts.

(*) : For some Variable, entries can be omitted.

  • Yes : Entry can be omitted.
  • No : Entry required always.

Output Variable

Variable name Data type / Description
Done Boolean
Execution completion confirmation
TRUE : This FB execution is completed.
FALSE : This FB execution is not completed.
Busy Boolean
Processing status of this FB
TRUE : Being executed.
FALSE : Not being executed.
Error Boolean
Error presence
TRUE : This FB ended abnormally.
FALSE : This FB ended successfully.
ErrorID Word
Error location
2800 (hexadecimal) : The error occurred in the PLC program.
2801 (hexadecimal) : The error occurred in the robot controller.
ErrorIDEx DWord
Error Code
This is a number to identify the error description.
For details, refer to "Error code list".

Function Description

-

Attention

To execute this FB, FB with the FB category "Motion" needs to be made executable.
To make FB with the FB category "Motion" executable, use the FB "MC_Power".
