8.12.3. Position data conversion (from E/EN/M1/M2 series to CR750/700/500 series)
This function converts the format of position data and relevant command (DJ, MP and PD command of
MOVEMASTER command), because the configuration of the E/EN/M1/M2 series controller's position data is
different from the CR750/700/500 series controller's.
Note1:
The program conversion converts the position data as well as the commands related to the position
data.
It is not possible to convert commands automatically. Be sure to make grammatical check using this
software before using the program of E/EN/M1/M2 series by the CR750/700/500 series, and change
the commands if necessary.
Note2: The position data of the MOVEMASTER command program for M1/M2 series has the
base-coordinate rotated 90º. When using the program for M1/M2 by the CR750/700/500 series,
convert M1/M2 program into EN program with the E/EN/M1/M2 series support software DOS version,
before carrying out the program conversion.
Note3: In the case of the E/EN/M1/M2 series support software DOS version and E/EN series Robot
programming supporter for Windows, the data can be saved separately such as command sentence
only, position data only or command sentence and position data. In this program conversion, it is
possible to convert the file of command sentence only and the file of position data only to one
program. The other combinations occurs error. (As following case 3 to 7.)
