1-1 Features of the SRCP Series Controller
The SRCP series is a high-performance robot controller using a 32-bit RISC chip CPU.
When used with a YAMAHA single-axis PHASER series robot, the SRCP controller performs posi-
tioning tasks of various mechanical parts and devices. The SRCP controller also performs I/O control
of solenoid valves and sensors, and controls communication with a PC (personal computer).
Using only one SRCP controller allows configuring a complete system for simple applications such
as pick-and-place tasks.
The SRCP series has the following features:
■
A high-performance 32-bit RISC chip CPU is used for high-speed, high-precision software
servo control.
■
Program assets created with the previous SRC, SRCA, ERC, SRCH, ERCX and SRCX series
can be used without any modifications.
■
Ideal acceleration and deceleration speeds can be obtained by simply entering the number of
the robot to control and the payload parameter. No troublesome servo adjustments are re-
quired.
■
The I/O interface provides 8 input and 5 output points for general-purpose user wiring as a
standard feature.
■
The TPB programming box (option) allows interactive user operation by simple menus that
permit immediate use. The robot can also be operated from a personal computer (PC) just the
same as TPB when the POPCOM software (option) is installed in the PC.
■
Programs for robot operation can be written with an easy-to-learn robot language that closely
resembles BASIC. Even first-time users will find it easy to use.
■
Users not accustomed to robot language can use a PLC (programmable logic controller) to
directly move the robot by specifying the operation points.
■
Users can create programs and control the robot on a personal computer (PC). Communication
with the PC is performed with an easy-to-learn robot language similar to BASIC. Even first-
time users will find it easy to use.
■
A built-in multi-task function allows efficiently creating the programs.
■
The I/O interface supports pulse trains to allow position control by input of a pulse train.

NOTE
The SRCP controller can be operated from either a TPB (programming box) or a PC running with communication
software such as POPCOM. This user's manual mainly describes operations using the TPB. For details on
operation with POPCOM, refer to the POPCOM manual. If you want to use your own methods to operate the
SRCP controller from a PC, refer to Chapter 11 "Communications with PC" for pertinent information.
