LoadId & CollDetect MotionSup
MotionSupDeactivates/Activates motion supervision

MotionSup (Motion Supervision) is used to deactivate or activate the motion supervi-
sion function for robot movements during program execution.
Description
Motion supervision is the name of a collection of functions for high sensitivity, model-
based supervision of the robot. Currently it contains functionality for load supervision,
jam supervision and collision detection. Because the supervision is designed to be very
sensitive, it may trip if there are large process forces acting on the robot.
If the load is not correctly defined, use the load identification function to specify it. If
large external process forces are present in most parts of the application, such as during
deburring, then use the system parameters to raise the supervision level of the motion
supervision until it no longer triggers. If, however, the external forces are only tempo-
rary, such as during the closing of a large spotweld gun, then the MotionSup instruction
should be used to raise the supervision level (or turn the function off) for those parts of
the application where the disturbance acts.
In RobotWare 3.1 the motion supervision is only be available for the IRB6400
robot family.
Examples
! If the motion supervision is active in the system parameters,
! then it is active by default during program execution
...
! If the motion supervision is deactivated through the system parameters,
! then it cannot be activated through the MotionSup instruction
...
! Deactivate motion supervision during program execution
MotionSup \Off;
...
! Activate motion supervision again during program execution
MotionSup \On;
...
! Tune the supervision level to 200% (makes the function less sensitive) of the level in
! the system parameters
MotionSup \On \TuneValue:= 200;
...

MotionSup LoadId & CollDetect
Arguments
MotionSup [ \On] | [ \Off] [\TuneValue]
[ \On ] Data type: switch
Activate the motion supervision function during program execution

(if it has already been activated in system parameters).
[ \Off ] Data type: switch
Deactivate the motion supervision function during program execution.
One of the arguments \On or \Off must be specified.
[ \TuneValue ] Data type: num
Tuning the motion supervision sensitivity level in percent (1 - 10 000%) of sys-

tem parameter level. A higher level gives more robust sensitivity. This argument
can only be combined with argument \On.
Program execution
If the function motion supervision is active both in the system parameters and in the
RAPID program and the motion supervision is triggered because of a collision etc.,
then
- the robot will stop as quickly as possible

- the robot will back up to remove any residual forces
- the program execution will stop with an error message
If motion supervision is active in system parameters, it is by default active during pro-

gram execution (TuneValue 100%). These values are set automatically
- at a cold start-up
- when a new program is loaded
- when starting program execution from the beginning.
Limitations
Motion supervision is never active for external axes or when one or more joints are run
in independent joint mode. When using the robot in the soft servo mode, it may be nec-
essary to turn the motion supervision off to avoid accidental tripping.

LoadId & CollDetect ParId
Parid Identification of tool load and payload data
Since the data of the different loads that can be mounted on the robot can be quite dif-
ficult to compute, there is a procedure called load identification which by moving the
robot computes the necessary load data.
Upper arm load
Payload
Tool load
Figure 1 Robot with mounted loads.
The loads that can be identified are the Tool load and the Payload and the identification
can only be performed in a position where the angle axis 4 is close to 0 degrees and
axis 6 is horizontal. The parameters that can be identified are mass, centre of gravity
and moments of inertia. Together with the identified parameters a measurement accu-
racy is also given.
To perform the identification the robot moves the load and computes the parameters.
The axes that move are 3, 5 and 6. At the identification position, the motion for axis 3
is approximately 3 degrees up and 3 degrees down and for axis 5 it is approximately
30 degrees up and 30 degrees down. For axis 6 the motion is performed around two
configuration points as described in Figure 2. The optimum value for the Configuration
angle is 90 degrees.
Configuration 2
30ο
30ο
Configuration angle
Configuration 1 (start position) 30ο 30ο
Figure 2 Motion interval for axis 6.
The movements of axis 3 will only be performed if the mass is to be identified. This
means that to identify the mass, the upper arm load (see Figure 1) must be known and
correctly defined.

ParId LoadId & CollDetect
Identification of Tool load

Before starting the identification of a tool load, you must make sure of a few things:
• Make sure the tool is correctly mounted.

• Make sure that axis 6 is close to horizontal and that axis 4 is not too far away from 0
degrees.
• Make sure that the upper arm load is known if the mass is to be identified. See Figure
31.
• Make sure that the axes 3, 5 and 6 are not close to their corresponding working range
limits.
• Make sure that the speed override is set to 100%.
To start the load identification you must have an active program in manual mode and
the tool that you want to identify must be defined and active in the jogging window. To
start make sure that you are in Manual mode and that you press the Enabling device.
To start load identification proceed as follows.
• Press the Enabling device.

• Choose Special: Call Service Routine....
• Select LoadIdentify and press OK.
• Press Start to begin the load identification.
You will now be guided through the load identification procedure.

• First choose if you want to identify a tool or a payload. Choose Tool.

• Then you will be asked to confirm that you are in a correct load identification position
and that the load is correctly mounted. Choose OK to confirm.
• Confirm that the tool structure that is active in the jogging window is the one that you
want to identify. If it is correct choose OK to confirm. If it is not correct release the
Enabling device, go to the jogging window and choose another tool. Then press the
Enabling device, return to the load identification program and press Start. Then
choose Retry and then confirm that the new tool is correct by pressing OK.
• Choose identification method. If you choose the method where the mass is assumed
to be known remember that the tool that you use must have the correct mass defined.
Confirm your choice by pressing OK.
• Choose configuration angle. Optimum is +90 or -90 degrees. If this is impossible
choose Other and input the angle that you want. Minimum is plus or minus 30
degrees.
• If the robot is not in a correct position for load identification you will be asked to jog
roughly one or more axes to a specified position. When you have done this press OK
to confirm.
• If the robot still is not in a correct position for load identification the robot will slowly
move to the correct position. Press Move to start the movement.
• Choose if you want the robot to go through the load identification movements slowly
before performing the load identification. This is useful for making sure that the robot
will not hit anything during the identification. Choose Yes if you want a slow test and
No otherwise.
• The setup for load identification is now complete. To start the motion change to Auto-
matic mode and press Move to start the load identification movements (avoid Manual
Full Speed mode, it is easier to use Automatic mode).
• When the identification is finished return to Manual mode and press Start. Press OK
to confirm.
• The result of the load identification is now presented on the Teach Pendant. Choose
Yes if you want to update the selected tool structure with the identified parameters or
No otherwise.
Identification of PayLoad
Before starting the identification of a payload you must make sure of a few things:

• Make sure that the tool and payload are correctly mounted.
• Make sure that axis 6 is close to horizontal and that axis 4 is not too far away from 0
degrees.
• Make sure that the Tool load is known.
• Make sure that the upper arm load is known if the mass is to be identified. See Figure
31.
• If using moving TCP the tool must be calibrated (TCP).
• If using roomfix TCP the corresponding workobject must be calibrated (frames).
• Make sure that the axes 3, 5 and 6 are not close to their corresponding working range
limits.
• Make sure that the speed override is set to 100%.
To start the load identification you must have an active program in manual mode and
the tool and workobject (only for roomfix TCP) in use must be defined and active in
the jogging window. To start make sure that you are in Manual mode and that you press
the Enabling device. To start load identification proceed as follows.
• Press the Enabling device.

• Choose Special: Call Routine....
• Select LoadIdentify and press OK.
• Press Start to begin the load identification.
You will now be guided through the load identification procedure.
• First choose if you want to identify a tool or a payload. Choose PayLoad.

• Then you will be asked to confirm that you are in a correct load identification position
and that the payload is correctly mounted and defined with name. Choose OK to con-
firm.
• Select the Payload that you want to identify. Press OK to continue.
• Confirm that the tool that is active in the jogging window is the one that holds the Pay-
load to identify. If it is correct choose OK to confirm. If it is not correct release the
Enabling device, go to the jogging window and choose another tool. Then press the
Enabling device, return to the load identification program and press Start. Then
choose Retry and then confirm that the new tool is correct by pressing OK.
• If roomfix TCP is used confirm that the work object that is active in the jogging win-
dow is the one that is in use for the Payload (work piece). If it is correct choose OK
to confirm. If it is not correct release the Enabling device, go to the jogging window

and choose another workobject. Then press the Enabling device, return to the load
identification program and press Start. Then choose Retry and confirm that the new
work object is correct by pressing OK.
• Choose identification method. If you choose the method where the mass is assumed
to be known, remember that the payload must have the correct mass defined. Confirm
your choice by pressing OK.
• Choose configuration angle. Optimum is +90 or -90 degrees. If this is impossible
choose Other and input the angle that you want. Minimum is plus or minus 30
degrees.
• If the robot is not in a correct position for load identification you will be asked to jog
roughly one or more axes to a specified position. When you have done this press OK
to confirm.
• If the robot still is not in a correct position for load identification the robot will slowly
move to the correct position. Press Move to start the movement.
• Choose if you want the robot to go through the load identification movements slowly
before performing the load identification. This is useful for making sure that the robot
will not hit anything during the identification. Choose Yes if you want a slow test and
No otherwise.
• The setup for load identification is now complete. To start the motion change to Auto-
matic mode and press Move to start the load identification movements (avoid Manual
Full Speed mode, it is easier to use Automatic mode).
• When the identification is finished return to Manual mode and press the Enabling
device. Press OK to confirm.
• The result of the load identification is now presented on the Teach Pendant. Choose
Yes if you want to update the selected payload with the identified parameters or No
otherwise.
Error handling
If the Enabling device is released during setup of the load identification (before the
movements start) the program LoadIdentifyProc can always be restarted by pressing
the Enabling device again and choosing Start.
If an error should occur during the load identification movements the procedure must
be restarted from the beginning. This is done automatically if you press Start after con-
firming the error. To interrupt and leave the load identification procedure, choose Spe-
cial: Move PP to main.
Limitations
In RobotWare 3.1, the load identification is only available for the IRB6400 robot
family.
Only Tool loads and Payloads can be identified. Thus arm loads cannot be identified
using this procedure.

If the load identification movements are interrupted by some kind of stop (Program
Stop, Emergency Stop, etc.) the load identification must be restarted from the begin-
ning. This is done automatically if you press Start after confirming the error.
If doing load identification with only Program Stop on the path of the active main pro-
gram, the active path will be cleared during load identification. This means that pro-
gram start of the main program results in program execution from load identification
end position to the destination position of the next move instruction.

LoadId Load identification of tool or payload

LoadId (Load Identification) can be used for load identification of tool (also gripper
tool if roomfix TCP) or payload (activates with instruction GripLoad) by executing a
user defined RAPID program.
Note: an easier way to identify the tool loading or payload is to use the interactive
dialogue RAPID program LoadIdentify. This program can be started from the menu
Program Window/Special/Call Service Routine.../LoadIdentify.
