R-30iA Hidden Auto Start Program

    I am converting the function of a FANUC robot so I need the [START] signal to start the newly written program. The PROG SELECT option is not visible/available in the MENU > SETUP popup. The program that currently runs when the [START] signal is activated is not a PNS or RSR program. I cannot seem to find where the auto-start program is declared for the life of me. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

    Update: The robot was previously programmed using Roboguide PalletTool. This results in the MAIN.tp program getting called when the UI:6[START] signal is enabled. I've modified this MAIN.tp program which has solved the problem.

    Interesting. I hadn't seen any documentation online that mentioned the absence of the PROG SELECT option or when it came into use. It was noted only in the PalletTool manual that MAIN.tp was the starting program.

    I have this EXACT situation going on with a Fanuc 410 Pallet tool Rj3ic controller...I can NOT get this to run in auto. we tried changing the program name to "main" and it still will not run in Local or Remote using the UOPs...
