Fanuc Master job?

[cheater]

I'm new to fanuc controllers.  I mainly work with motoman.  I'm retooling a fanuc cell to run a different part.  I'm having trouble figuring out how the fanuc actually executes its programs.  When we run multiple jobs in our motoman cells, we use a master job that calls up different sub jobs depending on the logic.  I would assume that the fanuc is fairly similar, but i can find nothing in the controller that resemble a master job.  If I could find out where the controller calls up the current job I could simply change the job name to my new job name?

Hi cheater

Welcome to the robot-forum

Look in the Fanuc forum for PNS, RSR,  even my last post titled "PNS vs "

You can do in Fanuc exactly what you do in Motoman, the key issue is the setup on the parameters/variables  which is not difficult. You can create your master program and call your subprograms using group of outputs.

What controller do you have ?

I will have to check and see which controller model it is tomorrow.  This controller should have something already set up in it. Where can I see what conditions call what jobs?  Is this something that I would see in the PLC or something that I would access through the teach pendent.

This is what I'm used to seeing.

CALL JOB:1 IF IN#1=ON
CALL JOB:2 IF IN#2=ON
CALL JOB:3 IF IN#3=ON

Press SELECT, you'll see a program list
Press Type and select TP only, then you will only see  the program similar to the jbi in Motoman. Tell me if you see a bunch of RSR001, RSR002, etc or PNS001, PNS002, etc or do you see anything call MAIN or MASTER or similar.

I found what I needed. I had to change the job number in the style detail.

That's what I thought it was.
