Looks like the max is 32766.

It should function as you describe. Is the PLC sending the start signal every time it sees the paused bit? That might cause the issue.
-
I am a little rusty on the other startup method, but I think this will work.
Turn "START for CONTINUE Only" to true, and then use the production start bit (UI[18]) to actually start the program from mainline. Use the start bit to only resume paused programs.

I don't have a teach pendant in front of me at the moment, but I believe the renumber utility is smart enough to not renumber points that are used more than once. Now the mirror utility on the other hand...

This might be a good application of a .cm file. I recommend reading the sticky thread.
-
The main thing I've noticed is that the older controllers lack the IF (...) THEN ELSE ENDIF logic commands, so stay away from that if you want to have common programs between the two generations.
Also, the R30iA lacks the 4D view, but that is not really useful.

Umm, that is your current disturbance torque on each servo.
-
We tried that and it doesn't pop up the alarm, but we need to perform this motion in LIN and with FINE since the tool is really close to the product and we must avoid damage to boht the tool and the product.You can still use a linear interpolation to get to the PR. Its just inside of the PR it will be joint values instead of linear values.
-
Also converting the problem point to a joint representation may solve the issue. That way the robot doesn't have to call up the IK solver and have it spit out the position unreachable alarm.

Is the position a PR? Could the wrong frame be active when you attempt the move?
-
You have to call up the tech support line to get that information.
-
You will have to go into the DCS Safe I/O connections and jumper out the signals that are connected to those inputs.
Usually it is something that looks like this:
CSO[1] = SSI[1]You would just NOT the SSI signal:
CSO[1] = !SSI[1] -
Also, they have huge lead times. Last one I had quoted had a lead time of 30 weeks.

I've had trouble with anything over 500mb with RoboGuide. You may have to find ways to reduce the file's size (remove fasteners, stuff the robot will never be near, etc.).
-
Be careful with that method. Like the article says, the values are not updated when the robot is jogged.
-
Check out explicit messaging in the Ethernet IP manual. Section 7.4.3.7. In there you can read the current position of the robot.
You don't even need to do anything on the robot side.
-
I think all this option does is allows you to view .pdf files that you select from the file menu. Just did some testing in RoboGuide, and even with the option installed, it won't let me open any .pdf files. Maybe it only works on real pendants.
-
I don't think that is possible.
A workaround is to swap the program between windows using the "EDIT<-->EDIT" command under the shifted display button. That lets you change the active program in the left window. This only works on double windows, and you still have to deal with aborting the current program to free up the motion group.

Ahh, sorry for misreading the question.
What method are you using to take the backups? I've had issues in the past where a backup was taken via FTP with ASCII mode turned on.
