CHAPTER 6 Increasing the robot operating speed

(4) Increasing the speed by the OUT effective position parameter

[Also refer to:] Robot controller owner's manual

("Axis parameters" – "Out effective Position" in Chapter 4) Programming manual

(OUTPOS statement in "11. Command statements".)

[Example]

 

 

From P1 when chuck is open:

 

 

OUTPOS (1) = 10000 ... X-axis OUT effective position (pulses)

: Increases the OUT effective position.

OUTPOS (2) = 10000 ... Y-axis OUT effective position (pulses)

 

 

 

The OUT effective position can

OUTPOS (3) = 10000 ... Z-axis OUT effective position (pulses)

 

be set for each axis.

 

If the same OUT effective

OUTPOS (4) = 10000 ... R-axis OUT effective position (pulses)

 

 

position is used for all axes, you

MOVE P, P2, Z=0

 

can write as "OUTPOS 10000".

 

 

DO3 (0) = 1 .................. Chuck closes.

 

OUTPOS (1)

= 2000 ..... Returns the OUT effective position to the default value.

 

If the same OUT effective

OUTPOS (2)

= 2000

position is used for all

axes, you can write as

OUTPOS (3)

= 2000

"OUTPOS 2000".

OUTPOS (4)

= 2000

 

Chuck starts closing.

OUT effective position

P1P2

Chuck closed.

When all of the X, Y, Z and R axes enter the OUT effective position (10000 pulses prior to P2), the chuck starts closing.

By setting the OUT effective position larger, the chuck starts closing while the robot arm is still moving at an earlier point, so that the chuck can grip the workpiece more quickly.

The default value of the OUT effective position is 2000 (pulses).

Relation between X, Y, R-axis rotating angle, Z-axis movement distance and pulse values

The arch position, tolerance and OUT effective position parameters are set in pulses.

For the relation between X, Y, R-axis rotating angle, Z-axis movement distance and pulse values, refer to the tables listed under item (4) in "4. Setting the soft limits". (Chapter 4 in this manual)

Both models incorporate Yamaha's renowned Graded Hammer Standard action, ensuring that the playing experience aligns with traditional piano dynamics.

One of the key technological advancements in both models is the integrated Pure CF Sound Engine. This technology captures the nuances of Yamaha's acclaimed concert grand pianos, delivering rich and authentic sound across a wide range of musical styles. Additionally, the synthesis engines in these synths allow for an expansive palette of sounds, from lush strings and bold brass to rich synthetic tones, enabling musicians to explore various genres effortlessly.

Another impressive feature of the YK180X and YK120X is the extensive library of built-in voices and styles. The YK180X boasts over 600 voices and 200 styles, while the YK120X comes with a diverse selection of over 400 voices and 150 styles, providing users with an array of options to enhance their performance. Both models also include a user-friendly interface with intuitive navigation, allowing for quick access to features and customization.

Connectivity is a critical aspect, and both synthesizers include USB to Host ports for easy integration with computers and mobile devices. With MIDI in and out options, musicians can connect to other musical gear, making these models versatile companions for stage performances and studio recordings alike.

In terms of additional features, the YK180X and YK120X come equipped with a built-in metronome and transpose functions, essential tools for practicing and performing. Moreover, the onboard recording capabilities allow musicians to capture their ideas and compositions quickly and efficiently.

Overall, the Yamaha YK180X and YK120X are powerful and versatile synthesizers that cater to a wide range of musical needs, from home practice to professional settings. With their superior sound quality, realistic playability, and innovative features, they represent an excellent choice for musicians looking to elevate their musical journey.
