Those are comands from the inform list. Not sure if this is the answer to your question.

Not sure if there is an instruction for pause weave but what you can do is
MovL
Arc on
weave on
MovL (were you want to stop the weave)
Weave off
MovL. (Were you need to finish the weld.This is how I manage to weave only where I have gaps and I can even load
Different parameters on those gaps or diferent weave profiles.Hope this helps and if there is a way to pause it hope someone can show you how.

Set a conditioned instruction.
Call job weld one IF IN 127 is on
You will be calling a job named XYZ IF input 12$ is ON -
Make a program called clean job.
With a digital output and a relay you can tell the reamer to turn on at the beginning of the job and off at the end of it.
Make a program to go to the cleaner and have it do its business.
After it cleans but before it finishes the clean program have it set one of the byte variables to zero. Set B010 0 for example.
Now this is the program to go and clean. Insert this program inside the master where you want it to do the cleaning. (Call clean)Now let's work on the clean per cycles.
On the weld job right at the end add an increment for the byte in the clean job. Inc B010
This will add one count once it finishes The weld job. This will go all the way up to 255 and if it goes over it will give you an over variable limit. If it does set the variable to zero and that will fix it.
Now let's put a condition on the clean job. Add an IF statement to the call. (Call job clean if B010 is equal to >5
This will call the clean job only IF the B010 is reached or if it is over the set number. You can play with this number all the way up to 255.
This should do the trick.
Good luck.

It had to do with the last wire harness you mentioned. I was not involved at the time it was fix but for what i was told it was a lose wire that came off when the wire harness was installed. I guess form now on we will have to double check when we FULLY rebuild our own robots, the good think is that it was the spare robot and that we tested it before it was needed. thanks for the help.

Thanks Robodoc.
Last night before I went home started to work on the very last thing you just recommended and yes it turn out to be a servo motor cable that was pinch between the servo and the robot housing. Half of the wires were completely gone. After the motor was replaced now I’m getting alarm 4328 (servo tracking error) on B and T axis. Do you think it actually damaged the servo card or the amplifier and if you do what would you replace first taking in consideration the short circuit we had (ground fault)?

Hello everyone.
I’m getting alarm 4335 on one of the controllers that I’m trying to bring back to life. I swapped the servo card and still the same thing we just rebuilt the robot for this controller with new wire harness and a few new servos. This controller was running at one time about 5 months ago before going to the shelve. We don’t have extra cable that got to the robot from the controller but on the on the outside the ground shield has continuity. If you guys have an idea let me know pls.
ps the fauld is on all servos SLURBT

The way we had it set up is by adding two relays in series.
One of them gets energized by the power coming from the feedback of the E-Stop and once it closes the contact it energizes the second coil. The second coil closes the contact and it turns on the glue gun. If the E-Stop is off no power for first coil and no power to close the circuit for the glue gun relay.
This is as far I remember how we had it set up and I don’t know if there is an option on the parameters to do what you are asking.
P.S. look for EXESP1/2 on your I/O manuals

Thank you for your response unfortunately we don’t have anything to prevent power surges and we get our electricity from our customer (we are a supplier from many) so we don’t have many options. Now we have a probable cause or idea of what the problem is in case someone wasn’t to fix the issue.
Once again thanks. -
Hello from Tx.
We have about 32 robots (nx100/HP20 and XRC/EA1400) and today all stopped at once. The fault on the NX was 9127 and on the XRC’s 4107. We had this issue before when we get heavy rains with lightings (every other year here in TX) but today it just happen out of nowhere. Since this happens when we get lightings I related this issue with power surge since electricity is the only thing common on all of the robots. Is this common on XRC’s and NX’s controllers and is this caused by a power surge?

Do a backup on the file/job that you want change the line to comment.
Open it with NOTEPAD on a computer.
Go to the instruction you want to change and add a (‘) at the beginning of line.
Make sure you don’t add any other thing to the line or else you will get syntax error.Line before the change
PSTART JOB:1A-R4P2-P SUB4
Line after the change
‘PSTART JOB:1A-R4P2-P SUB4
Load it to the controller and you should have no problem.
From past bad experiences do not delete the jobs at the pendant just rename them and once you are sure all the jobs you loaded are working correctly then delete them. -
What controller?
-
The variations you are having are they circular moves or linear? When was the last time you actually went inside the cell to make the adjustments without using Pam?

If you get that alarm message while saving the files then your card might be full. Delete some of the files but never format the card. I will advise you to buy 16Mb cards some controllers don't like the 32 Mb cards.

There are several issues for servo tracking error.
One could be that the servo is going bad. Does it make a squeaky noise? Could lead to bad brakes on servo or defective brake card (if it has one don’t remember)
Does it faults for that servo on only on position or all across the program. Try reducing the speed or adjust that movement so that the joint that is faulting doesn’t get that much stress.
Also if you are using the robot as a pick and place make sure the load is not too much for it and if it is compensate using the all joints to move the load.
As for the R1 joint I haven’t use that type of controller so I can’t help you. Good luck.

I tried that but didnt work. thanks for the suggestion.

Is there a setting to speed up the servos for the positioner?
We are using something similar to Motoman Arc world (small version) and for some reason these cells are “sweeping” way slower than our full size cells.
I know they can sweep faster because I have seen them but after we had some people from “corporate” came over they slowed them due to production slowing down. Now that we have new product we need to speed them up but we can’t find what parameter it is.It sweeps with one MovJ and it is at 100% already.
Any advices will help
