A single JRC program file may contain many programs. A complete glue deposition program contains program data and a point data array specifying where to take actions. The actions themselves are encoded in point jobs. The confluence page Building 33: Programming and using the glue robot breaks down some key concepts. Further information is in the JR-C manuals, linked for download at {gotta upload them}
You can view the complete list of programs using the drop down program menu in the Toolbar. Program numbers with names beginning "----" are actually empty. Those program numbers serve as visual dividers so that we can comment the program menu. |
