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

Screen definitions can be found on web server page under error diagnostic files TPMENU.DG or in a backup as TPMENU.DG To see current screen with web browser its in PASSCFG.DG as a sub selection this will format an .xml statement for you. You can add more to it if need be, they will compile in the controller as far as I know

you could write a password xml to display whatever page you want to be the main screen this is the command

<!-- Default screen -->

<DEFSCREEN level="0" sp_id="935" scrn_id="1"/>

Edit is sp_id 64

Karel is available on this robot. I Haven't written a karel program I have made minor directive modifications to source code. Could someone provide a base script?

Is there a way to write that into bg logic so that conditionally when a pick fails to initiate a transfer to say my desktop thats on the same network? I probably should have stated that i want to execute it conditionally when a failure occurs.

I'm using a cannon vison system on this particular Fanuc robot (V8.3), the vision information is stored in registers. I need a way to get the value out of them and store it as a txt file or something similar so that I can review failures and make adjustments accordingly. I have task ID and grasp ID that I need exported, there are 14 tasks each task has up to 3 grasp ids. That post into R64 Task id and R68 Grasp id. Looking for a simpler way than expanding my registers and making a counter for each task and grasp combo. Suggestions are appreciated! Edit I need something that i can execute conditionally.
