The 8 key is also the default hot key for SVSPOTMOV

Please post a picture of the pendant screen, including the message line at the bottom of the touch screen. Please also include the START and HOLD buttons at the top of the pendant. Thank you.

Check the cable connection for the pendant to the XCP01.

Servo Robot has lots of LT macros available that come with an ICUBE or similar product.

Le probleme reste-t-il?

Battery may have died. Contact Yaskawa directly.

WAIT SOUT #(65)=ON

SFTON and SFTOF only work with Play or INTERLOCK+TEST START in Teach. You can't use the FWD/BWD keys by default setting to activate these commands. So if you do stop the program in the middle after a SFTON, use INTERLOCK+TEST START to finish it.

Not sure which generation controller you are working on, but the SFTON/SFTOF functions works pretty much the same from NX100 through YRC1000.

Best of luck

There are different types of shifts available. Which one are you using?

On MRC, all the encoders have capacitors. To short out an encoder, you need to short out pins 8 and 12 on the encoder lead. Once you do that, you will lose the abso data for that axis and will have no choice but to recalibrate.

However I don't understand why you are unable to recalibrate. Please confirm that you went into the CUST - MORE - ORG area with password and choose F1 - ORG SET? This should allow you to calibrate any or all axes of the robot.

MRC parts are getting extremely difficult to find - hopefully this issue can be easily fixed.

I don't think you can set the speed to a variable in an ASF. Not even with Weldcom 2.0.

You can set the speed to a variable using the SPEED command.

ie. SPEED V=I000

Then remove the speeds from the MOVL where you want to use that speed.

PL=0 works fine on Motosim. It must be something in the program. Can you post a copy of your program?

Are you using MOVC by chance? If so, double check the location of your MOVC or MOVC positions. I think that might be the issue.

The servo control card of the robot comes equipped to be able to handle 3 extra station axes (S1, S2, S3). If you want more than that, you will need to include a small servopack in the robot to handle those external axes.

Check the servopack connections - chances are if you're getting servo tracking on 3 axes, It's a communication issue or the brakes are not releasing to something similar.

Do you hear the brakes click when they release when you turn the servos on? If not, check the status of the green 90v brake fuses in the XIU unit or the XSU unit.

Contact your local Yaskawa rep and ask them to give you electrical drawings for NX100 for your application (handling, general, etc.). They should be able to send you electronic copies or even print a copy for you.

SCOMARC is used when you are using coordinated motion (R1+S1:S1). Don't use it if you aren't doing a coordinated motion job

The rule of thumb with COMARC is:

- set up good set of weld parameters and weld job with the electrode at the leading edge of the puddle

- set up your weave amplitude and frequency using a Single weave (frequency is paramount)

- when ready, turn on COMARC MEASUREMENT MODE

- set S1E 197=1 to find out the appropriate parameter and time lag, and set the parameter

- set S1E 197=0 to find out the appropriate U/D and L/R and put those values in your job

- turn COMARC MEASUREMENT MODE to OFF

- test a weld

If it doesn't work, test it out from scratch again. If you screw something up in COMARC, sometimes it's just better to start over....

Correct. Only DX200 or later.

To see the macro jobs, you need to be in Management mode. Then you can go to JOB - SELECT MACRO JOB to see the macros.

Where are you located?
