ACE 2000 SDK

ACE2000 - AGV Control Executive, Version 2000 - is the highest level language for application AGV programming. It is used for control of automatic motion of AGVs equipped with AGV Electronics on-board control system. It is uniquely designed to use all features of AGV Electronics control concept and meet requirements, set by even the most complex vehicle.

ACE2000 is used to program AGVs with all types of navigation equipment, such as inductive guidance, magnet-gyro guidance and laser guidance.

The ACE2000 is a software package for Windows 95/98/2000/NT/XP and designed to support the development of ACE programs. It integrates editor, compiler, linker, programming and communication tools, and utilities into a platform for complete systems development, programming and testing.

ACE Example

ACE is programmed in tables. One table will move the AGV between two points in the layout. The ACE table can include only movements or load handling. The following example includes only movement of a wire guided AGV:

GUIDE GC GF2 CR CF3         ; Set guide center antenna, F2 guide frequency and
                            ; F3 cross frequency.
SPEED 100                   ; Set the drive speed to 1 m/sec.
CROS   2                    ; Move over two F3 cross wires
DIST    500 F U S           ; Move 500 cm, follow F2 and stop at the end on a cross wire.
RET                         ; End of table.
