motion until it is released; the actual position of the arm is displayed as it moves.
When the operator has adjusted the arm to the desired position, the Store option
should be selected to indicate that the value should be stored as the value of Theta for
Station #3. Pressing Store returns to the previous menu, giving the operator the
opportunity to establish another variable.
The operator might then select R to set the Extended position of the arm. The operator
can then select Jog and hold down the Extend or Retract key until the arm is extended
to the proper distance, then press Store, which would Store that value of R as the
extended position for Station # 3 and return to the previous menu.
Suppose the values of the other station parameters are already known. The operator
might then press Escape to return to the previous menu, where Assign can be selected
and the remaining parameters for Station #3 can be entered directly. Finally, pressing
Quit will end the station setting session and return to the Main Menu.
At this point, the operator should issue a Move-Station command to the station just
set to check that the values Learned are correct. The operator should then use Setup-
Station-Assign to make any required minor adjustments, and again check the position
using a Move-Station command.
