ALIGN program instruction ALIGN program instruction Syntax ALIGN Function Align the robot tool Z-axis with the nearest world axis. Usage Considerations The ALIGN instruction can be executed by any program task as long as the task has attached a robot. The instruction applies to the robot selected by the task. If the system is not configured to control a robot, executing the ALIGN instruction causes an error. Details Causes the tool to be rotated so that its Z-axis is aligned parallel to the nearest axis of the World coordinate system. This instruction is primarily useful for lining up the tool before a series of locations is taught. This is most easily done by using the monitor DO command.
