Hi,
For sake of simplicity, lets suppose that I have a TIMER which time is specified through a variable as:
TIMER T=I034
I am trying to modify the value of I034 during the execution of the JOB through the VAR.DAT sent through FTP from an external PC, simply by writing the corresponding characters to I034 in the VAR.DAT file.
I know it is possible to modify the value of a variable by sending the VAR.dat in such a way when the robot is not executing any job. Have tried to do so when the robot is executing the JOB without success (the controller rejects the file).
Does anyone know if it is actually possible (maybe with some special configuration)? Or any other means to accomplish the same purpose (online modification of a JOB variable during execution from an external PC)?
Thx in advance.
