Target model in DCS

  • Dear FANUC experts,


    In DCS Cartesian position check, there is a target model 1, 2, 3. I saw some examples people set these to 1, -1 or 0. I wonder what do these numbers mean?


    Thanks.


    Regards,

  • As you can see in the picture.


    0 - disabled
    -1 - robot
    -2 - tool


    So if there is a:
    0, target model is not used.
    -1 means that DCS safety zone will stop the robot if "robot" will "hit" the DCS zone (one of the robot axis)
    -2 is selected, robot will stop when modeled tool will interfere with DSC. (if I'm not mistaken, if you have a model of a tool defined in User Model, you use this number to use correct tool definition, so instead of -2, you would use whatever number you have in User Model)

  • Up to three targets can be checked against a zone
    for each target you must define the target model:


    0 Disables the target (it will not be checked).
    1 to 16 Checks a user defined model.
    -1 Checks the robot model of the target motion group .
    -2 Checks the tool model of the target motion group.


    (0:Disable,-1:Robot,-2:Tool)

  • Target model 1-3:
    Used to set the number of the target shape model that is checked.
    A maximum of three shape models can be defined.
    When set to 0, the target model is disabled.
    When set to 1-16, the user model is checked.
    When set to -1, the robot model of the target motion group is checked.
    When set to -2, the tool model of the target motion group is checked.
