cycle time and speed override

[titins]

I have a MH50 DX100

Anyone know if you can stop and start the "cycle time" when we want?

And Is there an instruction(speed override) like "VELSET in ABB" for put in the program?

The cycle timer runs when the robot is "running" (in play, servo on and program is running).  If you press hold, put in a pause instruction or hit an e-stop, the timer stops.

However, the cycle time timer is no accumulative.  When you start the program running again the timer starts over at zero.

Yes there is a "speed override".  In play, display the job that is running, tap utility then tap speed over ride.  The range you can put in is between 50 and 150% (from 50 to 99 the speed over ride make the program go slower, from 101 to 150 it goes faster).  By default this is a temporary over ride.  If you want to make it permanent, you have to turn on over right.

Hy Robodoc

already there is a choice of cycle time in play mode but does not help me because I want to know how long it takes to make a piece, not when time is moving, which is different because the robot never stops. Besides giving us time in each cycle it adds up. It is very unfortunate that the robot does not exist clock variables. For get-it and had to use the leader to "timers, ADD and registers" but now I have a clock in a position that I can stop and start whenever I want.

 The option to "speed override" does not help me since it is an instruction that I can put in the PROGRM, I can raise or lower the speed display no use to me because I need is the same but that can be inserted into the program to do-it manual.

 If you want inforcion algier how and made ​​a clock that MOTOMAN ask me to tell him of pleasure.

 Moreover, the technical service that I have in my country is unfortunate because I had to make do and in all by myself. If you ask them anything you know or do not have to consult.

thanks anyway

This is possible !  You can trigger speed override by digital output and set the percentage by output also.  You could write a small macro to set your outputs .  Ivenever tried it but it should work.

Hi Robo Guru,

I don't know how to make this with outputs in fact  I've made lot of "macros" but I don't how I can trigger speed override by digital outputs.

If you wan, you can explain me.

thanks

You have to set 2 parameters to enable the speed override:

- Set S2C701 to 1 to enable the function
- Set S4C287 to the I/O group that holds the speed value (Universal Input group)

I have set the I/O group to 20, so it will use the byte value of inputs 00200-00207.
In the CIO (ladder) I copy the value of a register to these inputs, so I can set a speed percentage in the register.

Please note that 0% is the same as 100% and that the maximum speed is 150%. I limited the register value to 1-100, so the speed stays in normal range.
