RoboDK provides a configurable Python interface to the RRS-1 implementation of any robot manufacturer RCS. In addition, it provides the necessary utilities and baselines to interact between RoboDK and the RRS interface.
Although the RRS implementation across different robot manufacturers should be consistent, the baseline provided by the interface may need some tweaking for a specific brand. RoboDK provides vendor specific implementation of the RRS interface.
The RoboDK RRS for Comau is a specific RoboDK Add-in for Comau robots. To install a RoboDK Add-in, please refer to the Add-in section of the documentation.
Once you have acquired and activated the required RCS modules from Comau, you can start using the RoboDK RRS for Comau Add-in.

d.Set the path to the RRS DLL file, usually rcscomau.dll.
2.Generate the RRS program by Right-Click your program➔Generate RRS Program (Comau)
A new program will be created with accurate joints and the cycle time estimation will be provided in the program name.
