Timer in kuka

simply use submit to stop the timer if program is not running

$timer_stop[1]=not $pro_act

or

$timer_stop[1]=$pro_act=false

or

$timer_stop[1]=$pro_state1<>#p_active

or similar...

key documentation is your friend (Programming Manuals for Systems Integrators, System Variables Manual). for more info check READ FIRST

I also try this logic, but no any changes, timer running as it is even program stop.

Where i have to use this logic ??

In my program or in sps or in conf. ??

Please explain in brief...

The only way for program instructions to be executed is if they are placed inside a program, program is linked (interpreted) and the code is valid

Placing above in robot program can work while robot program is interpreted. But once the program is stopped, code is no longer processed.

One solution is to place such code into a program that is normally processed all the time - submit interpreter

Still i am confuse in this, I used all yours optional code in my program but timer runnning as it is.

Will you please explain that code with example. ??

1.I want to reset timer 1

2.Then i want to start timer 1

3.After some working of robot i want to stop timer 1

4.In between working of robot, if i stop the robot motion by help of hold button or by means of any external emergency stop pb, timer shold be stop, for that certain robo stop period.

3.After some working of robot i want to stop timer 1

$TIMER_STOP[1] = TRUE

please help me for my 4th point also.!!

Now i understand perfectly with your deep explanation....

Thank you so much for help.

Mangesh Shenavi if robot motion stops then, $robot_stopped = true

if robot is moving then, $robot_stopped = false

if robot_running_with_program == false then

if $robot_stopped == true then

$TIMER_STOP[1]=true

endif

endif

robot_running_with_program, define this variable in config.dat, make it go true when robot program is running and if false turn it off. then use above code in SPS sub and you have to try everything by yourself, try to understand the behaviour of your own program and robot system variable.

I just try this code in my pendant

Then contig.dat is in error.

And the error is 'variable is longer than 24 character'

What i have to do now ??

Do what the message says, use a shorter name for that variable.

I will try this as soon !!
