2.4.3System Variables

The SCOL language provides special variables that are used in the programs to specify and referent robot operating conditions. These variables are called system variables. Just like other variables, you can refer to these variables in the program, change their value, etc. However, you have to be careful when setting or substituting values into system variables since doing this will directly effect robot operating conditions.

A list of system variables is presented below in Table 2.1.
