    We have 10 robots and we recently decided to set up passwords on them which has been relatively simple except tree of them do not have a password option. Is there a way I can take just the files that have the password software in them and copy them on to these other machines? If so, what files do I need? Or would I need to do a separate software install to get the passwords on them, I am hoping not that because the guy who does our software install work is part of a different branch of our company who lives in another country so getting him up here to do it would be a pain.

    You would need to purchase and install that software option.

    Thats what I was thinking but hoped it wouldnt be the case. If I copied everything from a machine with password enabled (image files and "all of the above" file backup) and put it on a controller that did not have it enabled would that carry the password capability over? or would it not recognize those files?

    It may work if those 2 robots are completely identical, but it would overwrite the mastering. Also, is probably illegal (software piracy).

    I am not sure if this is still true but last time I got the Password Protection option J541 from FANUC it was free. It was a simple matter of getting a PAC code from FANUC and enabling it.

    My understanding is when we bought it we had the ability to put it on every robot but these robots came in after it was applied to all the ones we had at the time and the guy who does that stuff would need to be flown in which sucks. I'll see about contacting fanuc and maybe they can send the stuff to me since contacting him has proved unhelpful. (hes the one who old me to just copy over everything haha)

    Hi EPeters,

    sounds like your Robot already have the Option.. if so.. you can copie the SYSPASS.VR File and load it in the robot (in Controlled start, robots need to have the same Version).. and if you modified the PASSWORD.XML File you should also load that one.

    I cant even see the syspass.vr file. Is it possible that its called something else or encompassed in another file?
