Good afternoon everyone,
I'm not new to the forum, but usually reading it helped me out enough.
As I could not find anything on the topic yet, I thought I'd ask:
FANUC places its WORLD CS in the junction of J1 and J2.
There are system variables for the DH parameters of the robot which I'd like to read in SYSTEM_GROUP[1].
One value I'm missing, due to the way FANUC represents them, is the distance between said junction and the point where the robot is mounted.
For the FANUC M-10iD/16S the value is 450mm and can be found in the diagram on page two of this flyer:
https://www.fanuc.eu/~/media/files/…6s-flyer-en.pdf
I'm not too familiar with robotic terms, so I might be just bad at googling it, but am having trouble to find a FANUC variable which contains or helps me getting this offset.
I'd like to get that value by code, in my expectation via SNPX. But for now I'm just trying to figure out how to find a variable that might be called something like "base offset" or "base link offset"?
If any of you has an idea for me, Id be grateful;
Thanks for reading,
Aiyion

It looks like i at least found it in the teach pendant:
[MENU] - [SETUP] - [FRAMES] - [CELL FRAME] contains it as Z-Value.
Now I only need to find the corresponding variable to read it via SNPX. -
Got it. I found SYSTEM Variables:
69 [CELL_GRP] - 1 [1] - 1 [$CELL_FRAME] - 4 [Z]: 450.000
And next below it69 [CELL_GRP] - 1 [1] - 1 [$MOUNT_LOC] - 4 [Z]: 450.000
I'd use the one referring to the mounting location.
If somebody has objections against using it, I'd be thankful;
otherwise I just wanted to leave this info here for others to find. -

Good job posting your solution. The only thing I will add, is that particular system var may not be present on older models. Probably V7.70 and lower.

Thanks for the input,
I'll be sure to report back once I hit a robot where this did not work out
