If LAST was selected, the operator will be asked if the location that the robot
moved to is indeed in correct orientation for the BullsEye
TCP:
Program Waiting for Data!
Robot needs to be at a point where the
gun is positioned straight up and down
with the gas cup breaking the beam.
YES, Program will stop, you can then
jog robot manually, start again

Is adjustment needed ?
YES will stop the program and allows the operator to manually jog the robot to a

START on the Teach Pendant to resume the program.
Pressing NO allows the program to continue with the tool center point set up.
The above screen would also appear had STOP been chosen instead of selecting
LAST at the previous screen. In either case if the torch is not breaking the beam

request for action appears:
Program Waiting for Data!
The system has detected that the beam
is not broken.
Program will move to previous screen.
The robot is now ready to begin calculating the TCP for the welding gun. The first
step is to determine the beam orientation and generate an approximate TCP.
Program Waiting for Data!
The Robot is now ready to search
for the beam orientation and
approximate TCP values.
Select SKIPTCP If you already have
good TCP values.
If your using a MIG weld gun, make
sure that 15 mm wire is fed out.
The approximate TCP measurement is excluded if the SKIPTCP button is pressed.
If the system has a MIG weld gun, use the wire feeder manual button to increase
the wire stick-out, cut to length as required and then press PROCEED. Note that on
some plasma cutting torches a special extension needs to be added to the torch to
