[0068] Furthermore, the display screen 340 displays a UI connection interface when it is turned on, and the UI connection interface displays a number of intelligent electric cylinder controllers 100 to be connected;

[0069] When the intelligent electric cylinder controller 100 on the UI connection interface is clicked or selected, the Bluetooth teaching pendant 300 establishes a Bluetooth connection with the clicked or selected intelligent electric cylinder controller 100, and the UI connection interface jumps to or displays the operation interface of the clicked or selected intelligent electric cylinder controller 100;

[0072] Specifically, when the debugging instruction in the debugging interface is clicked or selected, the MCU 310 will immediately send the corresponding debugging instruction to the intelligent electric cylinder controller 100, thereby controlling the electric cylinder body 200 to perform corresponding actions.

[0073] Specifically, the debugging interface also includes a parameter setting interface for setting the operating parameters of the electric cylinder body 200 and a teaching mode interface for setting point data.

[0074] Exemplarily, in the teaching mode interface, when a teaching instruction is triggered, the intelligent electric cylinder controller 100 stores the current position information of the electric cylinder body 200 in a point data list of the intelligent electric cylinder controller 100 .

[0075] The wireless debugging system provided in this embodiment integrates a Bluetooth module on the intelligent electric cylinder controller 100 to achieve wireless connection between the intelligent electric cylinder controller 100 and the Bluetooth teaching pendant 300.

In this embodiment, the IN port 103 and the OUT port 104 are both in an empty state, that is, no additional connection of the PLC control signal is required;

[0084] The command output interface 101 of the intelligent electric cylinder controller 100 is used to electrically connect to the electric cylinder body 200 .

[0102] In step 111, the UI connection interface displays a number of intelligent electric cylinder controllers to be connected.

[0103] Step 112: Select the corresponding intelligent electric cylinder controller in the UI connection interface, establish a Bluetooth connection between the Bluetooth teaching pendant and the selected intelligent electric cylinder controller, and enter the operation interface of the selected intelligent electric cylinder controller.
