i want to what is position level in move instructions mov l = 100,pl=0,and where we can use it
what is position level and use of that

You can find the explanation here: https://www.motoman.com/glossary
Basically it allows to restrict how much the robot cuts corners moving from point to point. Without it, the faster the robot moves, the more it cuts the corners. PL=0 is the most accurate, with the robot actually staying at that point for 0,3sec. Where you want/need to use it is up to you.

PL 0= it goes to the exact spot and pauses for a .5 seconds
PL 1 = robot must go within 1'' of taught position
PL 8 = robot must go within 8'' of taught positionSo as the robot is moving from position to position, it looks for the taught position, speed to get there and how accurate it needs to be.
Be careful when teaching, robot will be more accurate than when in operation.There is also a fine tag, which uses pulse counts. I use those if I need better accuracy than PL 1.
Fine 0 works the same as PL 0
Fine 1= 100 pulse counts. So it is within a 1/8''
Fine 2= 300 pulse counts, so 3/8''
and fine 3 = 1000 pulse counts = 1'' -
A PL= tag is used for accuracy/inaccuracy. A value of 0 is exact. The line of instruction is not complete until the robot's current position matches the command position. 0 can not be changed. There are also PL=1 through PL=8. These can be changed in parameters. The 0 costs some cycle time with the hesitation, the higher PL values are less accurate and can reduce cycle time.
