8. Modify the program to change speed of robot motion commands
(1) Insert the Power, Speed, and Accel commands as shown in the program below:
Function main
Print "This is my first program."
Power High
Speed 50
Accel 50, 50
Go P1
Go P2
Go P0
Fend
(2) Run the program by pressing F5
(3) Click on the Start button on the Run window.
The robot should go to each of the points you taught at 50% speed, acceleration, and
deceleration. The Power High statement enables your program to run the robot at
high (normal) power, which in turn allows the robot speed and acceleration to be
increased.
9. Backup the project and system configuration
Even though this is only a sample project, we will backup the project and controller
configuration. This is easy to do with EPSON RC+ 5.0. It is important that you keep
regular backups of your applications on an external media such as a USB memory key.
Follow these steps to backup the project and system configuration:
(1) From the Project Menu, select Copy.
(2) Change the Destination Drive to another drive.
(3) Click OK. The project will be copied to the external media.
(4) From the Tools Menu, select Controller.
(5) Click on the Backup Controller button.
(6) Select the desired drive.
(7) Click OK. The system configuration will be backed up on the external media.
Now that you have written your first program, you should read the chapter Building SPEL
