Hello,
Would someone like to tell me how to reset the position to zero of a endless axis?
Thanks very much!

i guess you are not interested in driving it back to zero or dial mastering...
actually , I have implemented the zero resetting , but I am not sure if it works fine.
my method : decouple the axis , assign it 0 , then couple again. BUT WHEN COUPLE BACK , THE BRAKES OF ROBOT SOUND "CLICK" ALOUD! I do not like this.
so I would like to find others solutions for the zero resetting
Hello, is it possible to simulate dial mastering from KRL? I thought this was not possible to do because of safety issues?
Hello, is it possible to simulate dial mastering from KRL?
YES, IT IS!
Can you share it? In none of the manuals system variables this isn't decribed nor metioned?
Cause then it would be possible to do that robot calibrate himself or it would be good to use this for self servo gripper calibrating which is using external axis?
Ok found this post: http://www.robot-forum.com/rob…a-loop/msg72240/#msg72240
This is used just for asynhrounous and external axis.
i thought that you found some special KRL command that i don't know about
you found it!
my problem has not been solved yet.
How to resetting the position 0 silently?
thank!
Hello. I think you already implemented the only possible way within KRL. I also have application where i had to use external endless axis for circular welding but in my application when i will have to reset it to zero 50 years will pass until maximum vaule for E1 is reached. And then the operator will have to put robot in T1 and do dial mastering by hand.
I noticed a similar issue to what you mentioned(though I am not that averse to the click sound). I simply disabled brake testing on the external axis making the click(it has no load to brake against). If you need the brakes, I don't think you have any option otherwise.
But yes, set the axis to async, decouple, set val to zero, turn off async. Works well.
I am trying to do this same thing, but when use the command "$ASYNC_EX_AX_DECOUPLE = 1" I get the following error. "de-/coupling not allowed for axis E1". How do I allow e1 to be decoupled?
Thanks
first make it asynchronous (so it is not tied to robot motion)
Isn't there an additional Machine.Dat variable that controls whether an Ex-axis is decouplable or not? Or am I remembering incorrectly?
I think there is because you have to set this in WoV now, by right clicking the axis and setting "enable coupling".
similar problem I have.
With robot with krc2, but endless is A6.
What possibilites I have to, set it to zero?
Yes. You have to set "enable coupling" in WoV to decouple the axis. I just missed this because it seems odd to "enable coupling" to allow me to decouple.
