Maybe remove access to the edit screen until logged in, or add several redundant checks and timeout loops with in the check program so it can be done with a single line skip

Could you post the program?

changing the value in .ls format and ascii converting would also work

If you have group exchange remove the positioner group, then setup a program to run it to the angle you want?

A program probably has ignore pause on. You should be able to see it either select f4 (monitor) or Menu-> next -> status-> execution history

It's possible,

$SCR_GRP[4].$AXISORDER = 0

$SCR_GRP[5].$AXISORDER = 0

Then $SCR.$STARTUP_CND = 12 anc cycle power.

How do you come up with the value to put into $SCR.$STARTUP_CND?

You can delete the motors out of the group in controlled start. Without reinstalling core software with the personality you want you will not be able to remove the axis modules to my knowledge.

Digital angle finders are great for quick master J2-6 and get you almost perfect. J1 use a dial indicator. After moving them you can use single axis master and with the indicator change master position to the last known position. Either write down the joint position or take a back up before disconnecting, summary DG will have the joint position in it. Always check zero after if not mastering at zero.

You will have to controlled start the robot, cycle power while holding previous and next. Wait for the configuration menu to pop up, then select 3 for controlled start this will take a minute to open. once in controlled start it will be in the arctool setup menu scroll down and change the number of weld schedules should be 8 or so in the list. if you need to login its on the 2nd page of menus. Function 1 for cold start to start the robot normally once you made your changes. this is on an R30ia it should be the same on the RJ3ic.

Condition monitor or Bg logic would suit this well but I need a way to identify when an arc start fail or lost detect occurs. Needing a way to identify specific errors outside of error output so when said error occurs i can trigger an output. Variable or a setting i have overlooked? Outside of karel because i have zero experience with it.

I am looking for a way to monitor certain arc faults then use a singular output to notify the PLC, to prevent excessive resetting. Is there a variable for active errors that I could write into a BG logic program or something I am missing in the weld equipment setup? I looked into the error output option, it is excessive for what I'm after.

You appear to have the option to monitor not navigate. You just need the ipendant controls software its available on the CRC webpage

If you have an e-stop unit I would replace it. if not pull it and inspect the contactors behind the board one is stuck closed you might be able to free it for a bit but it will need replaced.

Was this opened with weld pro? Arc robots will not open in handling pro

Fanuc got back to me updating in the same version works without uninstall or moving licenses

Hello all, I currently have V9 rev J Roboguide licensed and am in need of updating as I have controllers newer than the ones in this version now. My questions being do I need to do a full uninstall of Rev J, or can i install rev X without having to move licenses?

Definitely make sure you have an image/backup separate of the auto update media, I have had failures to restore from the update media.

Can someone explain the difference between fanuc's auto back up software (pc file services 2008) ,FTP back ups, and a local All of the above? Also FTP backups useable to restore? If so does the controller ignore the ascii formatted files? Working on getting away from file services 2008 and the new service is FTP

The ability to export from Roboguide as a 2d layout drawing.

Are you just after the soft key access? if so open in left window or single display and hold whichever F key you want it assigned to
