Downloading or Creating Kawasaki AS Robot Programs

This procedure describes how to download or create a Kawasaki AS robot program.
Open the Kawasaki.CATProcess file.
Downloading generates a Kawasaki AS robot program file from task lists associated with the robot in the PPR tree.

The following steps take place:

  • An XML file is generated from the activities defined in the PPR tree. This involves a mapping between the activities in the PPR tree and the elements in the XML file. The XML file generated is independent of the robot language (Kawasaki AS, in this case).
  • A style sheet transformation file (XSLT) is written for the Kawasaki AS translator. This file defines the mapping between the activities in XML file and the Kawasaki AS commands.
  • The XSLT is then run through the XML file to generate the required Kawasaki AS program.
