Description

Controller Utility components are used to build up a real-time connection to a virtual or real ABB IRC5 robot controller.

Functionality

The Get Controller component can be used to easily build up and define a connection to an available virtual or real ABB IRC5 robot controller. Different pieces of information can then be extracted and updated using other components from this category. Also, the Remote Connection component can be used to establish a remote connection with the defined controller which enables the user to upload an run RAPID code instantaneously.
