Background Logic for Dummies

    Hello,

    I am new to programming and I want to further understand what background logic is and how I can best use it to my ability. Are there any resources out there or anyone who can provide me with any explanation? Would be much appreciated

    Thanks :smiling_face:

    We have a sticky thread under the Fanuc Manuals and Tools section that would be a good start.

    BGLOGIC code that I have found useful

    So, I've only been using BGLOGIC for a couple months now. In my opinion, this is something that FANUC should teach in their advanced TPP class, because it's extremely useful. If it wasn't for the suggestion of somebody here, I never would have discovered this feature on my own. I guess they expect people to read their manual cover to cover, but there isn't enough coffee in the world to keep me awake if I tried that. I've managed to take a lot of heat off of our PLC programmer, and I've already…

    Think of BG logic like and extra mini PLC that is running inside the robot.

    I would recommend to get ahold of the R-30iBPlus basic operator manual (B-83284EN_10), where it's well documented.

    Like HawkME wrote, it's kind of like a PLC, but with some limitations in terms of what can be done in the programs.

    The BG Logic programs are always running, they will not be aborted because of E-stop for instance.

    You can not use any motion related instructions.
    You can jump, but only forward.


    But they're good for handling stuff in the background.
