instructions.
Run Runs the loaded program.
Step
Steps through the loaded program. Each click of the button performs one
instruction.

be cleared. Faults generated by hardware failures, such as Controller Offline,
cannot be cleared with this button. If the problem that generated the fault(s) is
not corrected, faults will re-occur.
Teach
This button is used in the programming process to teach the robot’s XYZ
location for dispensing purposes. Refer to Section 5 - Programming for detailed
instructions.
Go To
Moves the tool tip to the active XY coordinates, at Safe Z-height, of a selected
instruction or to the coordinates of a selected pattern or procedure’s Edit Frame.
Step Robot
Four-part button that moves the robot in steps in the direction of the arrow
clicked on. Only works in the X-axis and Y-axis. The distance moved during
each step is dependent on the width of the dispense pattern of the currently
selected tool, set during characterization.
Begin Idle
Executes the Begin Idle procedure in the currently loaded product or macro
program. Typically, the Begin Idle procedure places the nozzle in a solvent
bath.
End Idle
Executes the End Idle procedure in the currently loaded product or macro
program. Typically, the End Idle procedure purges the solvent from the nozzle
before resuming production.
Periodic
This button executes the periodic procedure in the currently loaded product or
macro program. Periodic behavior is defined by the instructions in the periodic
procedures. These procedures allow a sequence of operations to be performed
periodically during production, such as fan width control or nozzle clean.
