Abstract
A robot control system includes a robot having a servo control unit, a lower-level control apparatus transmitting a control command to the servo control unit and receiving robot status information representing a status of the robot from the servo control unit with respect to each preset control period, and an upper-level control apparatus transmitting command information for creation of the control command to the lower-level control apparatus. The lower-level control apparatus transmits the robot status information to the upper-level control apparatus in synchronization with the control period. The upper-level control apparatus transmits the command information to the lower-level control apparatus within a predetermined transmission time shorter than the control period from a time when receiving the robot status information from the lower-level control apparatus.
