value must be set according to the leaflet supplied with the robotic arm
and can also be reduced as required.
Input range
0.0 - 330.0 °
Default value
60.0 °
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 robotic arm.
Input 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; nor-
mally, this value does not have to be changed. 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.
Input 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 two-tower model, the robotic arm on tower 1 must swing to the
right, i.e., –, and that on tower 2 must swing to the left, +.
