Parameters: None.

The current position of the manipulator is stored under the memory position number stated in

positions 1, 2 and 3 correspond to the memory positions that can be accessed from the key-
board.

GOTO memory position

Parameters: Memory position

A017

Ready for next command

Parameters:
Px Py Pz end position

The manipulator moves in all three axes at the GOTO speed stored internally to the first position
stored at this memory position. Acknowledgement is sent as soon as all motors stop because
either the final position has been reached or because a limit switch has been activated. The sta-
tus of the limit switches is included in the response. If positioning was successful the value is 0.

This command can only be executed when remote control is active.
