Programming 5-5
Periodic1 to PeriodicN procedures execute based on their timers only. To use Periodic1 to PeriodicN
procedures, you must create procedures with the same names.
The Startup procedure executes at ECXP startup after the robot moves to its home position. To use this
procedure, you must create a procedure named Startup. In order for it to run, it must be in the macro or
product program loaded when ECXP is shut down.
Reserved procedures are included in the Macro1.ECM program included with ECXP. To open
Macro1.ECM follow the instructions under 5.3.4 Opening a Macro Program. Procedures in the
Macro1.ECM program are shown in Figure 5-3. To modify a reserved procedure, click on the procedure
name and insert the desired program instructions. See 5.9.7 Creating a Procedure for additional
information.
NOTE The Go to Front and Z Home procedures are preprogrammed. They are activated by the
Go to Front button and Z Home buttons. They are included as programming aids only.
DO NOT use them in any product programs or attempt to execute them with a Call
Procedure instruction.
