- the functions of the multi-window means 74 and the input switching means 73 are to read and execute the CPU 114 and the multi-window processing program or the input switching processing program in the ROM 115. Is realized by:
- the CPU 114 sets the user program and a set determined according to each work section.
- the control parameters and position control parameters based on the force control pattern are read out and set in the control execution unit.
- Encoder 55 Acquires the detection signal of 5, compensates the acquired force data, and calculates the operation command value while comparing it with the set control target value.
- the operation command value is output from the operation command value output device 1 16, and is supplied via the servo amplifier 60 to the motor 59 arranged at each joint of the robot mechanism 1. In this way, the CPU 114 realizes the function as the robot controller 5.
- the CPU 114 includes the multi-window means 74 and the input switching means 73 and realizes the respective functions.
