Swing radius
The swing radius depends on the length of the robotic arm and, together
with the axial distance, is the most important parameter for exact move-
ment to a rack position. This value must be set according to the leaflet
supplied with the swing head.
Range
30.0 ... 300.0 mm
Default value
110.0 mm
Rotation offset
Offset from the middle of the tower to the middle of the robotic arm. If a
robotic arm must be mounted on the tower so that it is offset to one side,
then this value can be determined by the service technician during rack
adjustment.
Range
-270.0 ... 270.0 °
Default value
0.0 °
Swing direction
The swing direction of the robotic arm depends on the type of robotic
arm.
For a 2-tower model, the robotic arm at Tower 1 must swing to the right,
i.e. – and that at Tower 2 must be mounted + so that it swings to the left.

Work position can be defined for each external position. Shift position
and Rinse position can only be defined for all 4 external positions
together. No Special position can be defined for external positions.
Angle
Definition of the swing angle for the selected external position. The offset
is made up of a design-dependent angle (approximately 8-9°) together
with the robotic arm offset from the Robotic arm properties (see Chapter
