| ROBOT.OPEN | |
| Syntax | ROBOT.OPEN robotname |
| Explanation | The ROBOT.OPEN command opens the
specified robot and establishes the communication
channel. Its output is TRUE if the communications channel
to the robotic device could be initialized; otherwise it
is FALSE. Make sure that the robotic device is
turned on and positioned close to its infrared
transmitter. As soon as the communication channel has
been established, all robot commands are enabled. This command causes the sliders and buttons which
simulate sensor input on the robot panel to become dimmed
and non-functional. Currently, the Fischertechnik robot 30402 is supported as "FT30402. It is assumed that the device is connected to the first serial port. If the device is connected to a different port number, append a dot and the the port nuber to the robot name, like "FT30402.2 See also ROBOT.CLOSE.
