Help understanding errors while compiling

ashwinmudigonda · February 22, 2018 at 7:20 PM

I am trying to write a TCP client in Karel to talk to a simple python server. I went through the manual and configured a client on $HOST_CFG[1]. I typed the example client from the manual into Notepad++(I couldn't copy paste)

Code

PROGRAM loopcl
%STACKSIZE = 4000
%NOLOCKGROUP
%NOPAUSE=ERROR+COMMAND+TPENABLE
%ENVIRONMENT uif
%ENVIRONMENT sysdef
%ENVIRONMENT kclop
%ENVIRONMENT bynam
%ENVIRONMENT fdev
%ENVIRONMENT flbt
%INCLUDE klevccdf
%INCLUDE klevkeys
%INCLUDE klevkmsk


VAR
	file_var : FILE
	tmp_int	 : INTEGER
	tmp_str  : STRING[128]
	status	 : INTEGER
	entry	 : INTEGER
	loop1	 : BOOLEAN

BEGIN
	SET_FILE_ATR(file_var, ATR_IA)
	SET_VAR(entry, '*SYSTEM*'. '$HOST_CFG[1].$SERVER_PORT',80000,status)

	-- Connect the tag
	WRITE('Connecting...',CR)
	MSG_CONNECT('C1:',status)
	WRITE(' Connect status = ',status,CR)
	loop1 = TRUE
	IF status = 0 THEN
		WHILE loop1 = TRUE DO
			WRITE('Opening file...',CR)
			OPEN FILE file_var('rw','C1:')
			status = IO_STATUS(file_var)
			IF status = 0 THEN
				FOR tmp_int = 1 TO 100 DO
					tmp_str = '0123456789012345'
					WRITE file_var(tmp_str::10)
					WRITE('Wrote 126 bytes',CR)
					IF status <> 0 THEN
						WRITE('Loop test fails',CR)
						loop1 = FALSE
						tmp_int = 100
					ELSE
						WRITE('Read 126 bytes',CR)
						READ file_var(tmp_str::10)
						status = IO_STATUS(file_var)
						WRITE('Read status ', status,CR)
					ENDIF
				ENDFOR
				WRITE('Closed file',CR)
				CLOSE FILE file_var
			ELSE
				WRITE('Error opening file',CR)
				loop1 = FALSE
			ENDIF
		ENDWHILE
		WRITE('Disconnecting...',CR)
		MSG_DISCO('C1:',status)
		WRITE('Done.',CR)
	ENDIF
END loopcl

We have HandlingPro evaluation version. I was able to load and compile simple programs. I tried to load the Karel_Client.ls program, and got error messages (see attached). I am not sure what they mean. Clicking on them does not help.

Could someone point me in a direction on how to debug?

I tried to write a simpler hello world and got errors trying to load the program in HandlingPro.

Code

--hello_world.kl


PROGRAM hello_world


BEGIN
	WRITE('Hello, world!',CR)
END hello_world

----

I tried following the instructions in this page - http://www.onerobotics.com/posts/2013/int…el-programming/

i was able to compile the hello_world to a .pc file.
I was able to find it on the pendant after copying it onto a USB drive and inserting it into the controller.

However, when I choose LOAD, I get

The KAREL option is required.

When I check the STATUS, I do see

KAREL Cmd. Language J650
KAREL Run-Time Env J539

on the pendant.

Am I missing something?

You need to have Karel installed.

The options that you listed will only allow you to view Karel variables and positions, but will not allow you to execute a Karel program.

pdl is right. You need option R632, which is Karel. Also, since you are creating your own TCP/IP packets, you will need User Socket Messaging as well, option R648.

Nation: shouldn't that be R632?

ashwinmudigonda: which controller is this? R-30iB?

You are right. I had a typo. I've edited my post to display the correct info.

Yes. It is a R-30iB Plus.

I got the FANUC rep to give us a PAC, but when I try to install in the CTRL START mode, I get OPTN-033 Image not backed up

Never mind. I figured it out. The manuals from FANUC are bad.

I had to choose the USB as the media source, and then follow the rep's steps to AUTH and INSTALL KAREL.

Then I couldn't figure out how to get out CTRL START mode. Turns out I had to tap on the FCTN button and choose the cold start option.

Hopefully this will help someone else flailing through these steps.

does anyone know how to trigger Auto update in the Ctrl Start? i had to install and auth both my Camera and IRvision but i can't seem to get past this auto update.
