STE 58762

PREFACE

This manual explains the SCOL robot language, commands and programming procedures as they apply to Toshiba SR Series industrial robots.

SCOL stands for "Symbolic Code Language for Robots" and is a robot language made up of various commands used to control the robot. By using these commands, it is possible to create programs to make the robot do what you want.

This manual is directed at those who have never written a robot program, and at those who have much programming experience. However, this manual only covers SCOL robot language. For information on Toshiba SR Series industrial robots themselves, please refer to the following manuals:

-Introductory Manual

-Start-up Manual

-Operating Manual

This Manual is organized as follows:

[1. An Outline of Robot Language]

This chapter explains the connection between robot language and robot movement, and presents a rough outline of commands used in robot language. Be sure to read this chapter in order to get a grasp of the fundamentals of robot language.

[2. Writing Programs in Robot Language]

This chapters describes various rules for writing a program with robot language. Be sure to read this chapter before starting to write your own programs.

[3. Explanation of Robot Commands]

Here we describe in detail what each command means and does. These commands are listed in alphabetical order for your convenience. This chapter will come in useful when you write programs on your own.

[4. Program Examples]

In this chapter, we explain various programming examples. Be sure to use this chapter for reference when writing your own programs.
