Hello,
which login are you using?
You need to connect as administrator if you want a read/write access to controler.

Hi,
you should use VSTART function, in this way you can communicate with Cognex camera. But you will not have camera view in the programming pendant. If you want this, you need MotoSight.
There are some parameters to set if you want to use VSTART function, you will need to ask it to Yaskawa because there is a FD parameter to change.
Hello Bill,
if you have a training on DX100, it will be no problem with DX200. There are some differences between those 2 controlers but not so much. Hardware is very similar, some improvements in programming but you will be able to handle it. The teach pendant is also the same.
Concerning ProfiBus, you will have an option board, not so hard to configure it if you already used this kind of communication before. Set up of Profibus board is also the same on DX100 and DX200...
Hi,
yes you need also MotoPlus SDK to compile the code and generate the executable file. There are some useful functions into it to communicate with the outside, to connect, send data and so on...
But you will need to contact Schunk in order to know format for data's and also Motoman to get documentations.
Bye
Hello,
you could easily communicate through RS232 with MotoPlus function and send data to your gripper. Have you got this function enabled into your controler?
Regards,
Thank motorobo, usefull parameter!
Hi,
you should use an optional EthernetIP slave board (PCI board) because standard Ethernet board can't manage EthernetIP by default.
Standard Ethernet port is made for FTP or TCP/IP communication, there is an option called 'MotoModbus' that make it possible to communicate by ModBus TCP but as far as I know, it is not so efficient.
Bye!
Hi,
it should work with this parameter.
If not, you shoud also check how your base axis is set up because this function needs correct RCxG parameters to work correctly (arm dimension, rotational base axis if you are using MotoSweep...)
Hi,
this is now possible with DX200. There are TM variables and a new Inform instruction : SETTM.
With this you can add instruction to start/stop to mesure cycle time.
But this is pretty new, I think that it is only available with the latest software version, could be great if someone could confirm that...
Hi,
if I remember well, you don't have any menu in maintenance mode with NX controler. If you need to increase position variables, you have to do it thanks to S1D parameters. And you will also have to initialize jobs, variables data and so on... same as DX but without the dedicated menu.
Hi,
if I remember well, this is S2C713 for the DX100 controler.
Hi,
specific I/O are very usefull when a plc is connected to the robot. There are a lot of I/O that you can use, plc can turn servo on, start the robot, set the speed...you can find the complete list of these signals in the documentation called 'Concurrent I/O'.
Hi,
why not using external hold?
You can customize it with the ladder and use it in your job with a PULSE command for example...
And the PAUSE instruction will also stop the robot.
Hi,
if you don't want that the robot stops between moves, you have to take care of instuctions.
When you make the robot 'thinking' , it stops. So you have to forget instructions of structured langage (if then, while, switch...), timers and system variables (GETS instruction)
But as far as I know, there is no manual about that ( if someone has got one, I am interested on it )
Hi,
as Fabian said, you have to look first to the teaching conditions, it should be on 'extended' to have access to all instructions.
If structured langage is not available on your controler you have to contact Yaskawa in your country because this is a FD parameter...
Hello,
when you say 'I´m suposed to have activated ethernet server on it', how did you do it??
Ethernet server is a FD parameter, did you check it?
Hi,
yes, edit lock function is on on your job.
You have to be in managment mode, go into the job and go to 'Display'-'Job header', you will be able to turn off the edit lock function for the job.
Hi,
MotoSim doesn't know the B00 models. You can only choose standard robot models (-A00).
Difference between MH50-A00 and MH50-B00 is just zeroing function. A00 is the standard model, B00 is the same robot but with holes for zeroing. You can use A00 model without any problem.
Hi,
hold 'AUX'+'AREA' buttons and turn on controller
Hi,
bgarrison said almost everything, 'S' is for 'Swing'
