Systems and methods are provided to facilitate correct execution of a machine jog operation where a plurality of interfaces can generate a machine jog command, which is received by an industrial controller. One or more machine jog commands can be received and state data is maintained regarding whether a machine jog command has been received. An OR gate logic operation is performed on the state data to determine whether a machine jog operation has been received from any of the plurality of interfaces, and in the event of receiving a machine jog operation, a control command is generated to effect a machine jog operation. The plurality of interfaces enable interaction with the controller, to facilitate control of a machine from a plurality of locations. The system can be expanded to include further interfaces. Also, information regarding a machine jog command can be published to the plurality of interfaces.

A touch screen input apparatus including a plurality of touch screens, a chip mounter provided with the apparatus, and a method for controlling the chip mounter are provided which improve the capability of controlling the chip mounter. The touch screen input apparatus of a chip mounter comprises a plurality of monitors dispersedly disposed in the vicinity of the chip mounter to provide display screens for inputting the letter or numeral, a touch panel attached to each monitor for recognizing a touched coordinate on each display screen and outputting an electrical signal, priority order and release time controlling means for receiving the signals output from the touch panels and recognizing the order of generation thereof, and a multiplexer for receiving the signals output from the touch panels and sequentially selecting and outputting the input signals according to the order recognized by the priority order and release time controlling means. The touch screen input apparatus includes the monitors and the touch screen which are located at different places in order to control the chip mounter, thereby improving the operational capability of the chip mounter.

Machines having a boom or arm pivotally disposed thereon wherein the length of the boom or arm and the angle thereof with respect to a reference plane are adjustable by means of actuators are well known. However, it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to simultaneously control the actuators in a coordinated fashion to move the end of the boom or arm in a straight line path. In order to overcome this problem, a boom control system for a boom according to the present invention controls the actuators in either of two modes of operation, the first mode of operation comprising independent control over each actuator to afford polar coordinate operation and the second mode of operation comprising synchronized control over the actuators so that the end of the member may be moved in a straight line. Means are provided for manually selecting one of the two modes of operation. Means may be provided for calculating the amount of remaining horizontal throw of the boom or arm when a command to move same is issued.

A numerical control system which employs a programmed numerical control processor to perform the numerical control functions is coupled to a bulk storage device by a host computer. The bulk storage device stores a download library which includes not only part programs, but also system software programs and diagnostic programs which may be downloaded to the numerical control system upon request. By downloading a system software program the numerical control capabilities of the system can be completely reconfigured to, in essence, provide a new machine.

It is assumed that when a first teaching device is communicating with an active task unit in a robot control device, a second teaching device transmits a request to connect to the active task unit, to the robot control device. In such a case, the robot control device is configured to stop the first teaching device executing active tasks, and establish communication between the second teaching device and the active task unit of the robot control device which allows active tasks to be executed thereby.

A machine tool includes a tool attachment device, a workpiece attachment device, a controller, a mode selector, an axis selector, a cover, a window, and a manual operation auxiliary display device. The controller is configured to control movements of at least one of the tool attachment device and the workpiece attachment device with respect to a target axis. The mode selector is configured to select a manual operation mode or an automatic operation mode. The axis selector is to select the target axis among a plurality of axes in a case where the mode selector selects the manual operation mode. The manual operation auxiliary display device is configured to display directions of the plurality of axes included in the machine tool as an axis configuration model in the window in a case where the manual operation mode is selected.

A method of controlling an industrial system by a control system including a user interface having a main display arranged to provide a status view of at least a portion of the industrial system and a secondary display enabling user interaction with the industrial system and the main display. The method includes: receiving an alert concerning a status change in a part of the industrial system; displaying, on the secondary display, an alert object associated with the part of the industrial system generating the alert; detecting a selection of the alert object based on gesture-based user input; displaying the alert object on the main display; receiving an adjustment command of a parameter via gesture-based user input, the parameter being associated with the part of the industrial system generating the alert; adjusting the parameter based on the adjustment command; and controlling the part generating the alert based on the adjusted parameter.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method and a control device (2) for operating an electrically controllable technical device (1), in particular a machine, an installation, a device or a technical process. A control panel (4) with input means (6) for issuing control commands to the technical device (1) and for inputting data into the control device (T) by an operator (7) is provided in this case. This control panel (4) also comprises a graphics-enabled output means (8) for displaying subsets of information which is available overall for an operator (7). The important factor here is to provide at least one second screen layout, which is designed to display a second subset of information on the graphics-enabled output means (8) and is intended to be viewed from a relatively great distance, in particular from outside an immediate control range (9) of the control panel (4) or the technical device (1). Furthermore, the presence and/or absence of a person in the immediate control range (9) of the control panel (4) or the technical device (1) is detected automatically and automated changeover between a first screen layout and the second screen layout is effected on the basis of the determined state relating to the presence and/or absence of a person in the immediate control range (9) of the control panel (4) or the technical device (1).

A numerical control system includes a main processor which performs such functions as interpolation and outputting of motion command signals to the servomechanisms on a machine tool. A separate programmable interface processor connects to the main processor bus structure and it operates as a programmable controller to control the discrete digital I/O devices associated with the machine tool. A third processor couples through a serial data link with the main processor and it operates to service peripheral I/O devices associated with the front control panel on the numerical control system.
