Hello to everyone. I am producing 10 different projects in my robot. projects are named project_1, project_2, ... project_10. I want to do the project selection process from the HMI panel. (Siemens Plc and HMI panel). While the robot is in home position, I want it to work according to the signal from the plc (for example, project_2). So I want to send the job code to the Robot from the HMI panel. What commands should I use on the Robot for this? Is there a sample project about it? Thanks in advance.

You can use GI to select the respective program you want
For example:
No_Prg:=GInput(Num_Program);
TEST No_Prg
CASE 1:....
CASE 2...

On ABB there exist an easier way.
You can use late binding.
Create a string like
Sprogname:='project_' +numtostring(ginput(prognr)) ;
Then call the routine with
%sprogname%
No warranty for the correct syntax, read manual.
