Abstract
A device and a method for synchronization of a robot program and a graphical program. The device includes a first converter adapted to convert a graphical program into a first sequence of tokens representing data for motions and actions contained in the graphical program. A second converter is adapted to convert the robot program into a second sequence of tokens representing data for motions and actions contained in the robot program. A modification command generator is adapted to compare the first and second sequences of tokens and based thereon generate modification commands. The first converter is adapted to receive the modification commands and edit the graphical program based on the modification commands so that the token sequence of the graphical program matches the token sequence of the robot program. The second converter is adapted to receive the modification commands and edit the robot program based on the modification commands so that the token sequence of the robot program matches the token sequence of the graphical program.
