Without the software to load your backup back into the robot, the robot will be in the default Japanese configuration. Most MRC robots do not have a dead-man by default. If your robot has the dead-man add on (or if you have one of the last software versions that had the dead-man built in and your robot does not have a dead-man) you need to set your robot up to meet the options you have.

When converting a job the robot simply does the math. If you get the "/OV" at the end of a move instruction it means the robot is trying to move beyond it's limits or Over Value of an axis or movement.

The memory is corrupt. You'll have to initialize the robot and start over. You'll need to have a full backup of everything from before this happened.

Worst case is the MIF01 card is bad and needs to be replaced.

You need to boot in maintenance mode and format the job area (known as the job table). It's like doing a low level format of a hard drive in your computer.

Shouldn't is the key word.

The NWAIT is only good for the move where the instruction is.

So if the move in the line MOVJ P000 PL=8 NWAIT is only 1 second and the computations take 2 seconds, by removing the computations you are removing the "delay", by having the NWAIT you are taking the move time (1 second) out of the program.

#1. Don't compare one to the other. It's like speaking a different language, you have to immerse yourself in the working on.

#2. Take a course on Motoman robots. For you, take the maintenance course.

Zorro53,

This is not the same problem. NX100 and XRC are very different. XRC can be single channel where NX100 is always dual channel.

Please start a new thread with your problem on an XRC robot

This is one of two things. You have a software miss match between the MCP01, MCP02, MIF01 and MSV cards, or the data connection between the MIF01 card and the pendant is bad. If no one has changed a board casing the software miss match, you'll need to replace the board on the back of the playback box, the I/O rack or the MIF01 cards ( in that order) to find the problem.

You will have to initialize the robot and load your backup.

If the +5 volt red LED is on, the problem is in one of the boards in the rack or the rack it's self. To resolve the problem you will need one of every board you have (XCP01, XCP02 option, and the power supply). Replace each board one at a time until the red +5 volt light does not come on.

If the problem is in the power supply you're all good. If the problem is in the XCP01 card you will need the software that matches the software version on the WRCA card.

Send your pendant to Yaskawa for repair. You need the system software re-installed in the pendant.

Are you talking about mirror shift on the X-Z plane?

Normally you make a job relative to something like the tool frame or a user frame. If the frame changes you can reteach the frame and robot will shift along with the change. If you have an R1 job you can make a job relative to a user frame, copy the job and change the control group in the header and make a new frame based on R2.

download the multi layer manual. There are examples of the code in it.

Don't think you can do this. The Master card is meant to talk to a smart device, the slave card is not a smart device and is meant to talk to a PLC.

The only way to really do this is have two slave cards and a PLC.

You can do it with Motosim. If you don't have Motosim contact Yaskawa and ask about converting the jobs for you as part of the new robot purchase.

You can also do it with relative job, however, you need to have relative job on both robots.

At the startup of the robot it checks the files in memory to make sure they are correct. The alarm you have says the memory is corrupt. You will have to initialize the robot and start over.
