Name
Type a one-word name for the teachpoint. For example, if
the teachpoint is on an integrated Microplate Labeler, you
might want to name the teachpoint
Labeler
.
This name appears in the graphical display area in the
BenchCel Diagnostics dialog box.
Approach height
Type the height clearance (mm) the robot must maintain
above the teachpoint as it moves towards or away from the
teachpoint location. The valid range is from 0
mm to
40
mm.
Use this setting to prevent the robot from colliding with
raised tabs or walls at the teachpoint location.
You can start with an approach height of 20
mm (default).
However, if there is an obstruction above the teachpoint, a
smaller approach height might be required to prevent a
collision.
Note:
This value applies when the robot is holding a
microplate. When it is not holding a microplate, the robot
will approach the teachpoint at the height of the teachpoint,
unless you select the Respect approach height when not
holding a plate option.
