Lesson 3 Beginner’s Course

4 Define a command to play back the supplied

“STAND” system action.

5 Click Add to enter the command.

The “PLAY ACTION STAND” command defined in the previous

step appears at the bottom.

6 Next, define the following command and click

Add.

Main Time#[ms]

WAIT (blank)

The “WAIT” command appears at the bottom.

The above command causes the program to wait until AIBO

finishes the PLAY-ACTION-STAND (stand) command defined

in steps 4 and 5. This means that the next command is not

executed until AIBO has finished standing up.

System actions are actions that are

provided in AIBO Master Studio.

Selecting PLAY-ACTION allows

you to select a system action.

To change the command after

clicking the Add button, select the

command in the bottom window

and enter another one.

AIBO sometimes executes several

commands simultaneously. As a

result, some of the commands are

canceled mid-way or AIBO

executes an unexpected action.

If you want AIBO to postpone

executing the next command until

the previous one has completed,

then make sure the Time#[ms] box

of the WAIT command is blank.

A blank box is the same as a “0”

setting, which in programming

means “do not execute the next

command until the previous one

has completed.” It does not mean

“wait 0 second” (a zero-second

waiting time in programming is

the same as immediate execution).

Main: PLAY (action)

Name: STAND

Sub: ACTION (system action)

Now you’ve defined a “stand”

action.
