NOTE
Out of 64 possible interference areas, 8 cubic interference
areas can be set to “ENTIRE” at “MONITOR POSITION” at
maximum. If more than 8 areas are tried to be set, the following alarm occurs.
ERORR 1510: Cannot edit. The maximum number of cubic
interference that is able to be set to “ENTIRE” is exceeded.
Under the condition that “ENTIRE” is set to “MONITOR
POSITION”, if 0.000[mm] is set as one of the cubic interference area side length, the DX100 will automatically regards
the length as 0.001[mm] to define the cubic interference
area. Then, it starts checking the interferences with the
arm.
For example, set an interference area with the length of
X-axis direction as 0.000[mm] and other directions follows.
<Max. value> <Min. value>
X:

allocated one-on-one.
In accordance with the tool number specified in the operation, a file
is selected out of 64 files.
• A maximum of 5 cylinders and spheres can be specified for registering the shape of the tool.
• Values for cylinders and spheres can be input to No.1 to No.5 by
moving the cursor key downward.
• Values input to Point 1 and 2 specify the either ends position of the
cylinder.
Like the setting of the tool dimensions, the setting values are set with
the center of T-axis flange regarded as the starting point (X=0, Y=0,
Z=0).
• The values input to “RADIUS” set the radius of the cylinders specified by Point 1 and 2. Also, the spheres with their center points at
Point 1 and 2 are set with their radius specified by the values input to

Recovery from Interference
Recovery from Interference
When {ALARM OUTPUT} is set to “ON” and {CHECK MEASURE} is set to
“FEED BACK”, still the alarm occurs if the manipulator interferes with the
interference area. Despite this alarm, the manipulator may not be put
outside of the interference area. It is because that the manipulator is still
inside of the area even after resetting the alarm and, furthermore, the
alarm occurs again. Then, it becomes impossible to reset the alarm any
more.
To put the manipulator outside of the interference area, refer to the
following procedures.
1.3.1
Releasing Limit
The alarm status mentioned above can be released on LIMIT RELEASE
window.

press [SELECT] to alternate “VALID” and “INVALID”.
Monitoring of the interference can be released temporarily by setting
“VALID” to {CUBIC/AXIS INTERFERENCE RELEASE} only when the
mode is in teach mode.
However, {CUBIC/AXIS INTERFERENCE RELEASE} is set to “INVALID”
again automatically when the mode is changed to play mode or to remote
mode.
The user can release the alarm occurrence by following the procedures
below.
1. Select {Main Menu} → {ROBOT} → {LIMIT RELEASE}.
2. Change the setting of {CUBIC/AXIS INTERFERENCE RELEASE}
from “INVALID” to “VALID”.
3. Select {Main Menu} → {SYSTEM INFORMATION} → {ALARM}.

Notes
1
When using the check function of arm interference with specified cubic
areas, to avoid any interferences with the manipulator including its tool,
set “COMMAND POSITION” to {CHECK MEASURE} on INTERFERENCE AREA window. Set the radius of the tool interfere file with allowances because there are position errors between the command position
and the feed back position for the moving manipulator.
