Fanuc Roboguide

  • I am new to using Roboguide software.

    My laptop is connected to the network that all of our robots are connected to. If I create a new cell in Roboguide from an old backup of a robot that I am currently on the same network with, will the old backup I use to create the cell in Roboguide overwrite the current programs and setup in the robot on the shop floor?

  • OK.

    Thank you.

    I didn't think it should but when i created the cell in roboguide and try to move the robot around, i get the same: water ok fault, and dcs fence open faults as it was connected to the actual robot.


    I wasn't sure if somewhere in the backup was a stored ip address and it connected automatically or something.

  • No. The messages probably depend on external inputs, the virtual robot has no physical inputs, so they all are Off, and if the off state on real robot will lead to the messages, they will appear in your virtual robot. You have to simulate the non existing inputs on your virtual copy.
