The second Options tab is “Communication Settings”.
Options Window, Communication Settings Tab
•
CAN Device
—The Device ID of the CAN/USB adapter inside the robot
is specified here. The ID of the adapter may need to be changed if
multiple robots are connected to the same PC. Instructions for
changing the ID can be found in the Software Installation section. This
setting in the Options window does not change the Device ID. It is
simply reporting the Device ID to the software.
•
Barcode Reader
—This setting provides the ability to disable the
barcode reader, if desired. Select the Comm Port to which the barcode
reader cable is connected. The Windows Device Manager can be used
to determine the port number.
•
Joystick
—A game controller for remote jog control can be used with
the robot (not provided). Select this option to enable the game
controller. Once this option is selected, a new item will be added to the
Tools menu titled “Joystick Setup.” If the PC is outfitted with speakers,
then select the “Speech Prompt” option to have the software announce
the jog settings as they are changed when pressing the game
controller buttons.
•
Servo Gripper
—If the robot is equipped with a servo gripper, then this
option will be displayed automatically. The standard KX-2 gripper uses
the robot CANOpen network for communication. The grip force percent
must be specified. The “Open” position should be a large enough value
(26.15mm max.) to allow the gripper to open wide enough to release
the microplate, but small enough to allow the gripper fingers to fit
inside all instrument nests. The “Closed” position should be small
enough (0mm min.) that the gripper fingers will contact the microplate
before reaching the closed position. Unique open and closed positions
can also be specified in the gripper commands in applications where
multiple open and closed positions are required.
