SOP forward to DO??

NovaFlatline · January 4, 2024 at 10:58 AM

Hello, Keep it up everyone.

I've been assigned an issue with a robot that has been giving me some difficulty. Random fault of (spot-063) scr short.

When fault reset is pressed the fault clears, and press start program runs. On the UOP. Is there any way that I may tie the SOP fault signal into a DO signal for a strobe or a PLC fault counter? So that once this fault comes across my strobe signals operators?

Much thanks.

I don't know off hand if there is a direct mapping for a DO to an SOP, but you can use background logic. If you don't have an unused DO you can map one to rack 0, slot 0. Then background logic you can do DO[x]=SO[x]

You can map the UO[6] (FAULT) to a DO of your choosing.

alan, thank you for replying. I am trying to link the fault signal to a strobe. I have looked into using interlock routing, to no avail. Still a bit confused.

gpunkt, I know I can map the UOP to inputs, but can I map SOP faults to DO? Then how would I go about doing that. Have not found that pendant to face moment, but I am close.

With a BG_LOGIC program, do what AlanL said. Then under setup, BG_LOGIC, put your program name in and F2 RUN

Just has to be mixed logic with the parenthesis.

@doctorc, I will look for that when I go in tonight. I'm not sure if my controller is compatible with that it is a 30i

UO[6] is a digital output. That is the solution, just use it directly.
