I am trying to run an adhesive dispensing job on a Yaskawa Motoman robot and for some reason it wont run. It is all just structured text (IF input 35 =ON Then CALL Job 1) but for some reason it wont run. Any ideas why? The servos are on, key switched to remote/ playback, green cycle start lamp lit up...I dont know what could be wrong. Thank you!
Wont run job...PLEASE HELP

Did you correctly connect the external start cable to CN308, stop and external servo on the MXT?
Strange, usually works normally!
-
I believe everything is connected properly. The electricians said that it was all wired to specs so I assume, but i will have him check it again. Could there be anything else?
-
Is the program actually executing but your input is not actually ON? Or is it that it is in fact not executing? What happens when you run it in teach?
-
My input is lighting up but the job itself wont execute. I can run the job in teach mode with no issues but once i turn it to playback or remote mode, nothing will happen.
-
How did you install it? What terminals did you turn the buttons?
-
Everything is communicating through Ethernet/IP and it was all wired by the electrical department here with this company.

I think that's why it's not working, I've tried but I have not found internal robot links to activate with an external button.
I know it works like this:
The external start, You have to use an open contact button, connecting it to the CN308 post B1 and B7 (or any 0V of the robot).
The external Hold, You must use a button with closed contact, connecting it to terminal 19 and 20 of the MXT.
The external Servo On, You must use an open contact button, connecting it to terminal 21 and 22 of the MXT. -
So, I'm sure it will work from the external drive.

2. Who turn on the input 35, an external button? If yes have you created the proper ladder software to enable it?
3. Is there any macro or system job?
4.Is the contact of your button wired correctly to the a PLC or to an CN30x terminal?
.....
I could continue unless I see the code and the ladder.
