Standard Interface Adaptation

Robots

The following table lists the robot brands that are supported by Mech-Mind Vision System Standard Interface Communication.

  • The robot system versions and controller models listed in the following table are strictly tested for adaptation purposes. We recommend that you use these robot system versions and controller models.

  • If you use a robot system version and controller model that are different from those listed in the following table, you can follow the operations described in relevant documents to set up the communication. However, the communication may fail to be set up. In this case, you can contact Mech-Mind Technical Support for help.

  • For robot brands that are not listed in the following table and may be supported in the future, see Communication adaptation schedule.

  • For robot brands whose documentation is unavailable, contact Mech-Mind Technical Support to obtain the setup instructions.

If you use a robot that is not listed above, follow the procedure below to complete the standard interface communication setup.

  1. Write standard interface communication programs by referring to the section Standard Interface Development Manual.

  2. Load the standard interface communication programs to the robot.

  3. Complete the vision-side communication configuration and start the interface service by referring to the section Quick Guide for Robot and Communication Configuration.

  4. Write simple example programs to test whether the communication is established. If the communication is established, a log will be displayed under the console tab of the log panel in Mech-Vision.
