Automation Workflow
The Program tab has a new Program Control option for Automation.
Within the Automation control panel, the user can compile a list of projects to run consecutively, with each project assigned a pallet range.
Project Execution – Pallets Ready to be Loaded by the Robot
When the user presses the Cycle Start button, the entire project queue will automatically execute.
For example, when the pallet range defined by the first project is finished, the second project is automatically built, downloaded, and started.

Program Changes

There are additional calls that must be added to the program to support automation.
Here is an example of the “Automation Wrapper” that must surround the pre-existing program logic:
open prog 1
call Automation.Initialize();
while(_Automation_Exit_Program != 1)
{
call Automation.MoveToLoadPosition();
dwell0;
call Automation.EnterReadyPosition();
call Automation.LoadPart();
//rest of program logic goes here
call Automation.CheckForProgramFinish();
}
_QueueNextProjectFlag=1;
