Monitoring the Robot Controller from WINCAPSIII

Choose Connect | Motor Communication | Online (Monitor) to connect WINCAPSIII to the robot controller and display its internal data.

Placing the Robot Controller in Machine Lock

You will now place the robot controller in machine lock. This enables you to simulate the programmed robot motion on the PC screen without actually running the robot.

If the machine is locked, you may restrict I/O output.
For details, refer to "Displaying Auxiliary Functions Menu (I/O)" of "TEACH PENDANT OPERATION GUIDE".

The dummy input icon on the status bar changes according to the I/O output restriction condition.
