Controllers
Supports the robot vision “iVY System”
The RCX series also supports the YAMAHA robot vision “iVY
System” capable of handling a vast range of applications yet is
simple to setup. Installing the vision board inside the controller
unit drastically simplies the calibration task that up to now took
a lot of time and trouble. Performing position offset at image
recognition widens the device sphere of applications and makes
it usable for general-purpose tasks (only supported on RCX240).

Double-carrier anti-collision control function
Collisions between carriers when using double-carriages can
be prevented by a control function within the controller. Former
collision prevention measures such as zone judgments or
external sensors are no longer needed so double-carriers are
now easier to use than ever before.
3D circular interpolation control
2D and 3D linear and circular
interpolation ARC control are possible,
making the RCX141 controller ideal
for sealing work, etc. (3-dimensional
interpolation is only available on the
RCX240)
Palletizing function
This function can easily dene a maximum of 20 types of pallets
by just entering the teaching points for the 4 corner positions
on the pallet. Entering teaching points along the height allows
handling cubic pallets. Specify the defined pallet No. and
execute the movement command to perform palletizing. The
program can execute various actions such as 1 point pallet,
pallet 1 point, pallet pallet, etc.

Hand denition
This function operates the robot based on coordinates when
the tool tip has been installed in the tip of the robot shaft in an
offset position. This is especially effective during tool rotation on
SCARA robots and robots with rotating shafts.

Shift coordinates
A deviation or offset might occur in the coordinates during
service tasks such as robot reinstallation or replacement. In
those cases using the coordinates can be corrected by using
the shift coordinate function so point data can be utilized without
having to make changes and there is no need for reteaching.

Passing point output control
This function can turn general outputs ON or OFF at specified
points so operation can continue with no stops along an axis
during interpolation tasks.
This outputs a spray ON or OFF signal while still operating on an
axis during sealing to allow stable and smooth coating of sealant.
