Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to obtain an manipulation feeling and improve ease of use in a teaching device for industrial machines, including robots and machine tools, in order to accurately designate a manipulation amount without performing manipulation by an erroneous manipulation amount during display of a rotary dial on a touch-panel-equipped device and during control of machinery. This purpose can be achieved by a touch-panel-type teaching device, wherein a rotary dial to which graduations are applied with respect to prescribed manipulation rotation amounts is displayed on a touch-panel-type display screen, an operation amount for the industrial machinery is designated by the rotation manipulation amount of the rotary dial, and a sound effect or vibration is emitted each time the rotary dial is rotationally manipulated by a rotation amount corresponding to one graduation.
