On this page, you will continue to build on your project so that after the green disk stops in front of the pickup sensor, the arm on the Workcell picks up the disk with the electromagnet and moves the disk to its drop off location.
Add a [Set manual move] block to the project to create the stack of blocks shown in this image.
This will be used to manually move the arm to record the (x, y, z) coordinates of the pick up and drop off locations for the green disk.
Download and run the project. The arm's (x, y, z) values will be displayed on the Brain's screen.
Place a green disk in front of the pickup sensor and then manually move the arm to Point 1.
Point 1 is where the electromagnet comes in contact with the green disk.
Record the (x, y, z) coordinates of Point 1 in your engineering notebook.
Keep the green disk on the electromagnet and manually move the arm to Point 2.
Point 2 is where the disk is just above the standoffs of the green drop off location.
Record the (x, y, z) coordinates of Point 2 in your engineering notebook.
Once you have finished recording both points, stop the project.
Remove the [Set manual move] block from the project and add additional blocks to create the stack of blocks shown in this image.
These blocks will code the arm to pick up and sort the green disk.
Use your coordinates for Point 1 and Point 2, and not the ones shown in this image.
Place the green disk onto the entry conveyor and then download and run the project.
The green disk will pass through the transport conveyor, stop in front of the pickup sensor, and then be picked up and placed into the green drop off location.
Once the green disk has been sorted into the green drop off location, stop the project and check in with your teacher.
If the green disk has not been sorted into the green drop off location, notify your teacher during the check in.
