set_tool_digital_outputs()

set_tool_digital_outputs(bit_list)

Features

This function sends the signal of the robot tool from the digital contact point. The digital signals of the contact points defined in bit_list are output at one.

Parameters

Parameter Name

Data Type

Default Value

Description

bit_list

list (int)

-

List of multiple output contacts

  • The positive contact number outputs ON: 1~6

  • The negative contact number outputs OFF: -1~-6

Return

Description

0

Success

Negative value

Exception

Description

DR_Error (DR_ERROR_TYPE)

Parameter data type error occurred

DR_Error (DR_ERROR_VALUE)

Parameter value is invalid

DR_Error (DR_ERROR_RUNTIME)

C extension module error occurred

DR_Error (DR_ERROR_STOP)

Program terminated forcefully

Example

Python
set_tool_digital_outputs(bit_list=[1,2,3,4,5,6])   	# Sets the contacts 1-6 ON 
set_tool_digital_outputs([-1,-2,-3,-4,-5,-6]) 		# Sets the contacts 1-6 OFF
set_digital_outputs([1,-2,3])            # Contact no. 1 ON, no. 2 OFF, and no. 3 ON


set_tool_digital_outputs(bit_start, bit_end, val)

Features

This function sends the signal of the robot tool from the digital contact point. The multiple signals from the first contact point (bit_start) to the last contact point (bit_end) are output at one.

Parameters

Parameter Name

Data Type

Default Value

Description

bit_start

int

-

Beginning contact number for output signal (1~6)

bit_end

int

-

Ending contact number for output signal (1~6)

val

int

-

Output value

Note

  • Bit_end must be a larger number than bit_start.

  • Val is the value of the combination of bits where bit_start =LSB and bit_end=MSB.
    Ex) bit_start =1, bit_end=4, val=0b1010 # No. 4=ON, no. 3=OFF, no. 2=ON, and no. 1=OFF

Example

Python
# Outputs contact 1=ON, contact 2=ON, contact 3=OFF, and contact 4=OFF.
set_tool_digital_outputs(bit_start=1, bit_end=4, val=0b0011) # 0b means a binary number. 

# Outputs contact 3=ON and contact 4=OFF. 
set_tool_digital_outputs(bit_start=3, bit_end=4, val=0b01) # 0b means a binary number.

# Outputs the ON signal from contacts 1 through 8.
set_tool_digital_outputs(1, 8, 0xff)                       # 0x means a hexadecimal number.
