RobFlow
RobFlow is a Node Graph Interpreter used to create low-code programs to control RobCo Robots.
New here?
Start with the Flow Editor section. It introduces the interface and continues into the Node reference. The ideas the Nodes build on are collected under Concepts.
How this documentation is organized
The sections below mirror the View Selector in RobFlow — the control that switches between the RobFlow views — so what you see in the sidebar matches what you see on screen:
- Flow Editor — create and edit Flows. Covers the interface and contains the full Node reference.
- Subflow Editor — build reusable Subflows.
- Dashboard Editor — compose operator Dashboards from Widgets.
- Dashboard Viewer — use Dashboards in production (not editable here).
- Robot Visualizer — the live 3D model of the Robot.
- RobSafety — configure Safety Functions and when they apply.
Complementary topics
Three more sections aren't views of their own — they apply across the ones above:
- Robot Configuration — set up the Robot and its devices, including Robot Calibration. Opens from the Misc Menu.
- Variables — store values and bind them to the periphery. Opens from the Variables Menu.
- Concepts — the ideas that show up across several views and Nodes: the tool center point (TCP), blending radius, Expressions and pose Expressions, Workspaces, the safe home position, approach modes, Highlighter Mode, and more. This is where the info buttons (ℹ) in the app point.
