Device, System And Method For Setting An Operation Of A Robot Unit, And Use Of A Device

A system comprising a robot unit, a robot controller and a device for setting an operation of the robot unit, the device is adapted to create or modify a robot control program that is executed by the robot controller that controls the operation of the robot unit, the device comprises a Central Processing Unit (CPU) adapted to execute a software program for creating or modifying said robot control program, wherein a user platform is adapted to be connected to the device for enabling input of information to the software program, and wherein the device comprises a platform independent Representational State Transfer communication protocol (REST client) and transfer the platform independent REST client to the user platform, which platform independent REST client enables the user platform to communicate with the software program.

A method for setting the operation of a robot unit by means of a device for setting an operation of the robot unit, the device is adapted to create or modify a robot control program that is executed by a robot controller that controls the operation of the robot unit, the device comprises a Central Processing Unit (CPU) adapted to execute a software program for creating or modifying said robot control program, wherein a user platform is adapted to be connected to the device for enabling input of information to the software program, wherein the device comprises a platform independent Representational State Transfer communication protocol (REST client) and transfer the platform independent REST client to the user platform, which platform independent REST client enables the user platform to communicate with the software program, and wherein the method comprises:

• transferring the platform independent REST client to the user platform,
• installing the platform independent REST client on the user platform, and
• establishing communication between the user platform and the software program with the platform independent REST client.

Use of a device for setting the operation of a robot unit, said device is adapted to create or modify a robot control program that is executed by the robot controller that controls the operation of the robot unit, the device comprises a Central Processing Unit (CPU) adapted to execute a software program for creating or modifying said robot control program, wherein a user platform is adapted to be connected to the device for enabling input of information to the software program, wherein the device comprises a platform independent Representational State Transfer communication protocol (REST client) and transfers the platform independent REST client to the user platform, which platform independent REST client enables the user platform to communicate with the software program.
