Software to put comments in jobs offline

    I am looking for a software that will allow me to add comments to my jobs offline. I have tried to use Ultra Edit before and I cannot seem to get the format correct. Has anyone else found a successful way to do this?

    Thanks

    Welcome to the robot-forum

    Example
    MOVL
    MOVL
    ' Pick up part
    MOVL

    Comments are indicated with the apostrophe

    My recommendation: Write a comment like '12345678901234567890123456789012 as far as you can with the teach pendant, then edit the program. You will find out the proper inform sintaxis and also how many characters you can write in one line. You can use Wordpad, Notepad Be careful how you save it It' has to be a .jbi document

    Hi:

    I'm dealing with similar issues. I downloaded the file, edited it in notepad and tried to reload it. I get "Error 2040 defined JOB name". Can't find that error online or in my manuals. the name I am trying to load from the flash card is NOT in the controller.

    Fabian:

    tried it with both "GRIP5" and "GRIP5.JBI" in the notepad file and got the same error....

    The mentioned error applies on attempt to load a job, when a job with the same name already exists in the robot.
    Note, that the job name is the name indicated in the job file header, no matter what is the file name.
    The existing job should be deleted from the robot, or better renamed, for backup purposes.

    Comments are limited to 32 symbols.

    Do it well right away. It will become bad by itself.

    One of your comments is still too long.
    In the line 1 comment, you have 2 extra space characters after the dashes, which makes the comment 34 symbols long.

    Be extremely careful with spaces while editing offline, and be aware that double spaces are not allowed in instruction lines, except double space in before EXPRESS statement.

    Do it well right away. It will become bad by itself.
