I needed a pointer tool to teach some trans positions for a function so I did that using TOOL5 and got my new routine to work no problem. I ran some parts and thought it was all good but after using this robot to do some limited production successfully the robot was rebooted and then it came up with a CUBIC-S mismatch due to TOOL5 not matching the factory NULL values. I could have setup CUBIC-S to match these TOOL5 values but there only needed temporarily so I wanted to just set them back to NULL.
What I would like to know is how to change system variables and settings from a Terminal window like to change Auto Tool Coordinates - TOOL5 and edit it back to nill values from the terminal. I wound up making a quick AS file and loading that into the controller like the following.
.AUXDATA
TOOL5 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000
DFF5 20.000 0.000 0.000 0.000
.END
I would have rather typed it in from a temrinal window. If I do a point TOOL5 or a TYPE TOOL5 it is unknown but I would think there has to be a way to see and to edit this system setting from the terminal. On a base Kawasaki system I could make such an edit from the menus R-405 or Auto Tool Coordinatees tool 5 window they have components entry or teach method. I am on a system where you can only teach the tool so I could no edit it there. so that was out. Perhaps I want to assign TOOL5 to a TRANS var for now I have to copy it out and type it in to my TRANS.
Another example is if I type DEFSIG I can see many system signal configuration settings but I cannot edit or change them from the terminal I have to use a menu and a screen to do such but think access to these from the terminal is probable possible. So in this case I can view them but not change them.
Thanks for your help if you know how to access/edit these settings..... Looking to learn more on the Kawasaki
