Operational Interlocks
The MagnaTran 7 robot is provided with optional operational interlocks to ensure the
safety of the robot. These interlocks are provided as part of the discrete communica-
tions option and must be set up by the user.
Identification
Interlocks are divided into three command groups: command types related to Sensors
at a station, I/O State OUTPUTS and Miscellaneous. These interlocks are detailed in
. A maximum number of 170 interlocks is accepted. This allows for the pos-
sibility of using each I/O type available at each station, as well as all generic DIO
options.
A station mapped or assigned an I/O without assigning the pan will always default
to arm A. On a dual arm, arm B will not be mapped unless arm B is specifically
mapped.
