Overview

Type:

Method

Available as of:

V1.0.0.0

Task

Setting the parameters of the clamping station and specifying the target station to which the pair of carriers will be handed over.

Description

With the method SetStationParameter, you can specify the following parameters:
  • the target station to which the pair of carriers will be transferred

  • the process position for clamping as well as the gap between the pairs and the gap within the pair(s) in process position

  • the waiting position and the gap between the carriers in waiting position

For more information on the waiting position and the process position, refer to the general description of Standard Stations.

NOTE: Before executing the method CyclicMotionCall, the method SetStationParameter must be called at least once.

The return value SetStationParameter of type BOOL indicates TRUE if a target station has been assigned successfully.
