1-3 Installing the Software
This software is run from the hard disk. This section explains how to install the software.
[1] Insert the compact disk into the CD ROM drive.
[2] Double-click Setup.EXE in disk 1.
[3] The installation program will start. Follow the onscreen prompts to select the applicable installation options.
[4] When the installation program ends, an item named “RoboCylinder” will be created in the Programs list
displayed from the Start menu. This software will launch when RoboCylinder is selected.
1-4 Starting the Software
[1] Turn off the power to the controller and connect the controller to the PC using the external connection unit
that comes with the software.
[2] Turn on the power to the controller.
[3] Set the port switch on the controller to ON, and start the software.
* This software determines whether it is in the online mode or offline mode based on whether or not the
controller and PC are connected when the software is started. The software will not switch to the online
mode if the port switch on the controller is set to ON after the software has been started with the port
switch set to OFF. To switch the software to the online mode when it is running in the offline mode, use the
“Reconnect” function (refer to 3-1 (5) [2], “Controller Setup”).
[4] When the “Check for connected axes” window appears, wait for the software to complete the check. Then,
enter appropriate information to set up the software in accordance with the configuration of your system.
The “Setting of application” window (Fig. 1) is displayed only once after the software has been installed for
the first time. (Refer to the next page.)
