Robotic Arm Start Up Using a Serial Cable Manufacturing Costs CIM Cost of Manufacturing Robotic Arm Start Up Using a Serial Cable Step 1. Start Up the robotic arm Refer to Lesson 3.3 Lynxmotion Robotic Arm Start Up and Shut Down Procedures Step 2. Ensure communication has been established Step 3. Confirm correct arm size has been selected Step 4. Calibrate the arm if necessary Project Lead The Way, Inc. Copyright 2008

Robotic Arm Start Up Using a USB Cable and SSC-32U Manufacturing Costs CIM Cost of Manufacturing Robotic Arm Start Up Using a USB Cable and SSC-32U Step 1. Connect the robot to a computer via USB cable. Wait for the Windows drivers to load. Note that this takes longer the first time. Step 2. Connect the AC power adapter cable to the robot. Step 3. Move the single switch to the on position. Step 4. Open the FlowArm PLTW software. Step 5. Select the Bluetooth Button. Refer to Lesson 3.3 Lynxmotion Robotic Arm Project Lead The Way, Inc.

FlowArm PLTW Sequencer Pattern consisting of multiple frames Sequencer Allows a pattern of robotic arm positions called frames to be recorded Allows a pattern of frames to be played so a robotic arm repeats actions

General Sequence Outline Use these steps as a guide for moving objects. Begin at a start position with gripper open. Move the hand to a position directly above an object. Move the hand to the object. Close the gripper. Lift the object up. Move the object to a position above the drop-off position. Set the object down where you want it. Open the gripper. Return to a position above the object. Return to home position.

Sequencer General Steps Use these steps for developing a sequence. Step 1: Save the current sequence. Step 2: Position the robot in a “home” position. Step 3: Record the position. Step 4: Click the button to add a position. Step 5: Move the arm to desired position. Step 6: Record the position. Step 7: Repeat steps 4–6 to complete sequence. Step 8: Click individual steps to verify positions. Step 9: Rewind and play the entire sequence from the first step. Step 10: Save the current sequence.

Sequencer General Steps WARNING! Unless the pattern is saved, all changes will be lost when you close the FlowArm software. Step 1: Save the selected pattern. Enter a meaningful file name and select Save. Note that the sequence and pattern are interchangeable.

Sequencer General Steps Step 2: Move the robot to a start position using a preferred arm movement method. Step 3: Record the current position in the selected frame. The current position of every servo will be recorded.

Sequencer General Steps Step 4: Add a frame. A frame can be removed by selecting it in the Sequencer and then selecting the Delete Frame button. Step 5: Move the robot to a start position using a preferred arm movement method.

Sequencer General Steps Step 6: Record the current position in the selected frame. Step 7: Repeat steps 4–6 until the pattern is completed. Step 8: Click on each frame to verify the correct position. Adjust the time duration of each frame by dragging the end of the frame. WARNING! A step duration must allow an arm to physically complete a step. If the duration is too short then the step might be skipped or the arm does not reach the correct target.

Sequencer General Steps Step 9: Rewind the pattern to the beginning and play the sequence. Make necessary changes to the sequence. Stop; vary playback speed or loop Recording. Step 10: Save the current sequence. WARNING! Unless the pattern is saved, all changes will be lost when you close FlowArm software.

Sequencer Tips Frame insert pause, remove gaps, and reverse. Add a new pattern and name each new pattern to record several within a file. See the image below for the correct plus sign symbol location for add pattern.

Inputs Inputs A–D can be used to control a start and stop to a saved sequence. Inputs A–D are connected to the input pins shown on the Lynx Motion SSC-32 board. If no actual inputs are sensed or connected to the robot, they can be selected in the FlowArm PLTW Software.

Inputs Input A – Digital start sequence from beginning Input B – Return from digital pause Input C – Return from digital pause Input D – Stop sequence in progress (e.g., emergency stop)

Inputs B and C A pause in a step will halt the sequence at the beginning of a step with a pause. Inputs B and C can be used to return motion to a sequence at a digital pause. Add a digital pause to a step using the procedure below. Remove a pause using the same procedure. 1. Step Before 2. Toggle Pause 3. Step After

Inputs A and D A signal from input A starts a sequence from the beginning or stops a sequence in progress, rewinds the sequence to home, and restarts the sequence. A signal from input D will stop a sequence and is a good option for an emergency stop.

Input Response Summary   Sequence Status Input At Beginning Stopped During Stopped at End At Digital Pause In Progress A Starts from Beginning Returns and Starts from Beginning Stops and Restarts from Beginning B Restarts from Current Time Nothing Resumes from Current Pause C D Stops at Current Time
