I have a fanuc 50Ib on an rj3 controller running 7.5 firmware.... Here is my problem. In production mode or T2 mode I can Purge and I can load paint to the gun and get paint out of the gun. But, when I run a motions program and it starts line tracking the part i get no paint spraying out the end....My Presets are right ff = 100cc , fa= 80psi, AA= 80 psi... I get air out of the end of the gun but no paint... I have checked the gun and it works fine on another robot. I have looked at the program its running and it loads the job in that job it calls preset(2) then it calls the motions TP program It starts with calling PRESET(2) then a 2 motions points with the second having GUN ON on at the end of the line and it will go through a dozen or more points before GUN OFF is called at the end of a motion line..
Everything looks like it should spray paint but its a no go... I have even checked the regulator and its fine... Just put a new one on it to see if there was something wrong with the first one and its still a no go...
Am i missing something in the programming or is there some hidden sub function that needs to be turned on?
:note-
I did notice that when running a program in test cycle and the rj3 controller is in T2 mode I have an option to turn on or off the activator Valve....It has to be ON in test cycle to purge or to load paint....Would this need to be activated in production mode? If so how or where would I do that?
