Abstract
A method is provided for automatic configuring of an external control system for open-loop and/or closed-loop control of a robot system. In the method, an external control system and a robot system, including at least one manipulator and a robot controller, are provided. In addition, a connection is made for exchanging data between the robot system and the external control system. Description data is transferred from the robot system to the external control system. A mathematical robot model is created by the external control system on the basis of the received description data, and a communication is established between the external control system and the robot controller on the basis of the received description data.
Claims19
A method for automatically configuring an external control system, the method comprising the steps of:
- setting up a connection for interchanging data between a robot system and the external control system, the robot system having at least one manipulator and a robot controller;
- receiving description data from the robot system via the connection at the external control system;
- creating a mathematical robot model by the external control system on the basis of the received description data;
- and
- setting up communication between the external control system and the robot controller over a second connection different from the connection on the basis of the received description data.
A method for automatically configuring an external control system, the method comprising the steps of:
- setting up a connection for interchanging data between a robot system and the external control system, the robot system having at least one manipulator and a robot controller;
- receiving description data from the robot system at the external control system;
- creating a mathematical robot model by the external control system on the basis of the received description data;
- setting up communication between the external control system and the robot controller on the basis of the received description data;
- and
- directly supplying a voltage from the external control system to a drive system of the manipulator.
