4. Expander

(ESR0710a)

The expander is used to expand an loaded program so that multiple boards (max. of 255) can be

created on a single panel. Because these data settings are not saved, the data must be re-entered if the

program is expanded again.

Expansion Conditions

The base program’s board number “0” must remain as it is (this block is not part of the

expansion).

If the only board number in the base program is “Block No. 0”, that program cannot be

expanded.

Expansion cannot be performed at base program board numbers other than “1”

(excluding “0”).

The “Offset Q” item at the 1st line must be “0 degrees”. Any other setting is ignored.

There is no error display even if the expansion result exceeds the panel size.

The Expander screen layout is shown below.

Operation Buttons

Expands the base program to create a multi-board program based on

the specified board data.

Press this button when expansion is completed, to display

confirmation messages regarding how the expansion result is to be

saved. The first message inquires if the expansion result is to be

saved to memory, and the next message inquires if the expansion

result is to be saved to a file.

Setting Item Explanations

Board Number

Specifies the board number. The board number at the first line must always be “1”.

Beginning from the second line, the user can specify the numbers as desired.

Offset X

At the first line, this setting specifies the X-coordinate (distance from program origin)

which serves as the base program reference position.

Beginning from the second line, this setting specifies the position of the board relative to

the first line’s program origin.

Offset Y

At the first line, this setting specifies the Y-coordinate (distance from program origin)

which serves as the base program reference position.

Beginning from the second line, this setting specifies the position of the board relative to

the first line’s program origin.

Offset Rotation

Specifies the part angle which serves as the reference position.

0 degrees: Base program angle is unchanged

90 degrees: Offset 90 degrees from base program

180 degrees: Offset 180 degrees from base program

270 degrees: Offset 270 degrees from base program

Expander Sample

In the sample below, the program is expanded to create a panel which contains four

boards.

1. Determine the part which is to the reference part. If the example below, the upper

right part is the reference part.

2. Determine the position of the reference part on each board. Also determine the

offset angle.

Board 1: Specify the distance (Offset X, Offset Y) from the origin to the reference

part. The offset rotation for the first board must always be “0”.

Board 2: Specify the distance (Offset X, Offset Y) from the origin to the same part.

Board 3, 4: Specify the distance (Offset X, Offset Y) from the origin to the same part.

Moreover, because these two boards are rotated 180 degrees, the offset

rotation must be specified as “180”.
