Hi, I am a newbee to robots.
I have a Motoman sk300 with an XRC controller and would like to get FormCut option working if possible. Not for commercial use just a big hobby.
Please help.
Many thanx.

Contact your local Yaskawa office. They could turn it on for you. It is a purchased option.
I emailed them and they replied as follows.
Not sure how I do that
Any further help appreciated.

You will have to have them tell you how to do it. It is considered proprietary information.
Please DO NO POST parameters that are "paid for software options"
Please BE PROFESSIONAL, DO NOT ask members of the Yaskawa team about password either. You are jeopardizing their jobs
Please avoid asking for or offering passwords.
Form cut does not work on all robots. Normally only the 20 and 50 series. UP20, HP20, UP50, HP50....
This was an option developed for water jet cutting, so the larger robots would not follow the paths correctly.
The XRC controller is very old version from Yaskawa, i think, they couldn't support you.
Thanx for that. Would it still be possible to get upgrade firmware for my SK300 and
what third party software could be adapted.
Many thanx
No, there are no upgrades to support this. It was never developed.
Can't comment on third party software to talk to an XRC (that only communicates RS232)
