3D Graphic Display Function
The 3D Graphic Display Function (henceforth described as 3D Display
Function) is that, a 3D model of the robot is displayed on the programming
pendant window, and the current value of the robot can be confirmed. By
using the multi-window function, the job's teaching position displayed in
the job content can also be confirmed on the 3D display window. When
the functional safety function is valid, the functional safety range can also
be displayed.

Absolute Data (ABSO Data)
Absolute Data (ABSO Data) is a correction factor for data that establishes
an indicated value of zero when the robot is at the predetermined Home
(calibration position).
Accuracy
Accuracy is the measurement of the deviation between the command
characteristic and the attained characteristic (R15.05-2), or the precision
with which a computed or calculated robot position can be attained.
Accuracy is normally worse than the arm's repeatability. Accuracy is not
constant over the workspace, due to the effect of link kinematics.
Active Compliant Robot
An active compliant robot is one in which motion modification during the
performance of a task is initiated by the control system. The induced
motion modification is slight, but sufficient to facilitate the completion of a
desired task.
Actual Position
The position or location of the tool control point. Note that this will not be
exactly the same as the demand position, due to a multitude of unsensed
errors, such as link deflection, transmission irregularity, tolerances in link
lengths, etc.
Actuator
A power mechanism used to effect motion, or maintain position of the
robot (for example, a motor which converts electrical energy to effect
motion of the robot) (R15.07). The actuator responds to a signal received
from the control system.
