    We we turn on our robots every morning, the "weld" is not enabled and the operator is consistently forgetting to turn this on. Is there a variable that i can change somewhere? I managed to find one for the speed but nothing for weld yet.

    create a TP program with the "Ignore pause" parameter set to ON, write a single line in there which changes the appropriate system variable and then go to CONFIG menu and set this program to be executed in Cold + Hot start.

    Thank you for the quick reply, how would I go about writing the WELD enable into the program? Where can I find this? My Programming is pretty basic when it comes to anything other than welding and motions.

    1. Create a program, give it a name, go to DETAILS, set Ignore pause to ON. Also, be sure NOT to assign any motion groups to this program (Group mask set to [*,*,*,*,*,*]).
    2. Write the following line in the program

    Code
    $AWEPOR[1].$ARC_ENABLE=1


    Hopefully that is the variable's name for your R-J3, this comes from the R-30iB as far as I remember. If not, then try searching for a similar name in the $AWEPOR structure or some other $AW* structures.

    3. Go to Menu -> System -> Config and put the name of your new program in the fields for automatic program execution on Hot- and Cold Start.
    4. Done.

    You can use the very same program to set many other parameters that you want to set on startup (other system variables, DOs, Registers etc.) - just add anything you need to the code.

    Thank you again for the information. Is there an option to write this as code or is it an instruction? That's where I'm stuck at the moment.

    1. Go to program editor, then use [INST] -> Miscellaneous -> Parameter name -> $... = ...
    2. Select the first "..." with the cursor, press Enter, type AWEPOR[1].$ARC_ENABLE
    3. Select the second "..." with the cursor, press enter, select Constant, type 1.
