The Auto solve feature is designed to easily solve kinematic errors and collision issues for operations automatically, without user manual intervention. When Auto solve is run, Robotmaster will calculate operations and then attempt to solve issues. The results of the Auto solve are displayed at the bottom left of the screen.Kinematic errors that Auto solve attempts to fixworks by trying different operations settings, including axis configuration, optimization, and rotary settings, to achieve an error-free solution. In cases where all issues cannot be solved automatically, it still corrects as many as errors as it can, reducing manual work.

Overview
Auto solve will attempt to fix the following types of issues in a program:
Singularity
Joint limit
Overtravel
Wrist flipCollisions
(local)Out of reach
Collisions within the operation
Interferences within the operation
Auto solve will not attempt to fix:
Collisions between robots
Interferences
Out of reach
Navigation
Open or create a new part programming session.
Ensure a device is loaded.
Ensure at least one operation is assigned to a program.
Run Auto solve
...
Robot-to-robot collisions
Robot-to-robot interferences
Connections between operations, including transitions
Connections between home points and operations
When Auto solve is run, it first calculates any uncalculated operations. If kinematic errors or collisions exist, it uses the established axis calculation method, Spherical interpolation or Profile tracking, and then attempts to solve by adjusting operation settings including tool orientation, optimization plan, and wrist configuration.
For devices with an external rotary axis (such as a turntable), Auto solve will also attempt different rotary settings and angles to solve errors. This applies to external rotary axes with an “Index only” type.
Navigation
With a device loaded, Auto solve is accessible at the top of the Operations panel on the device side of Robotmaster.

Run Auto solve for all programs
On the device side, make sure that the focus is on all programs. Select the crosshairs (

Previous marketing copy:
Auto Solve is a single-click path optimization and error correction tool that makes it easier and faster for users to achieve optimized and error-free programs without the need for programming or robotics expertise. The Auto Solve algorithm automatically applies axis configuration, optimization, and rotary settings, among others, to achieve error-free operations. Some of the advantages of Auto Solve are:
...
Simplify the programming process and make it more efficient
...
Minimize the number of manual interactions required from the user
...
Tackle complex programming tasks with fewer errors and in less time
...
If your session has multiple programs, you can use device focus modes to calculate operations in a specific program only.
Select the crosshairs (
) next to the program you want to solve.
Click Auto solve.
Alternatively, you can use the program Auto solve button for a specific program.
...
With this approach, only active focus items in the program will be auto solved.
Run Auto solve for a specific robot
For multi-robot devices, you can set the focus mode to a specific robot to solve only operations for that robot.
Select the crosshairs (
) next to the robot you want to solve.
Click Auto solve.
Additional notes
Auto solve is performed at the program level, not at the operational level. It is not available in operation focus mode.
Auto solve behaves the same way as Calculate with respect to the following calculate options:
Calculate with collision
Calculate graphical transition
Calculate with processor
Certain special operation types are treated differently during Auto solve. For these types, Auto solve will not perform axis configuration setting and tool orientation adjustments when trying to solve:
