Visual Data Communication by Instruction (DCI) is an on-line communications protocol developed for Motoman robots. The DCI Server software application allows the user to utilize this communications protocol to upload and download robot programs and variables. DCI Server includes a built-in variable editor which allows realtime robot variable modifications including byte, integer, double, real and position variables. These modifications can also be done by manipulating the XML variable database using an external software application for ultimate control.
