Changing the robot
speed
You can select the robot speed to accommodate the task you are
performing. For example, you can select the Slow speed when you are
creating new teachpoints, creating and testing protocols, or diagnosing
problems with the system. When you are ready to run a protocol that
you have tested, you can select the High speed.
You can also set the each speed (High, Medium, or Slow) as a
percentage of the factory-set maximum speed. You can set the speed for
each of the robot axes.
To select the robot speed:
In the
Controls
tab, select the Speed:
Fast, Medium,
or
Slow.
The speed you select in BenchCel Diagnostics applies only to the robot
commands in BenchCel Diagnostics (Jog, Move, Transfer, and so on). If
the robot is holding a microplate, the slower of the following will be
applied: the speed you selected in the Labware Editor or the speed you
selected in BenchCel Diagnostics.
Note: During a protocol run, the robot will use the speed selection in the
BenchWorks Tools > Options dialog box. If the robot is holding a
microplate, the slower of the following will be applied: the speed in the
Labware Editor or the speed in the Tools > Options dialog box. For more
information, see the
BenchWorks Automation Control User Guide .
