Changing the settings of analog signals can be done in the EIO, or through the configuration screens in Robot Studio. I don't see a setting for "Approx. Max", but there are settings for Maximum Logical Value, Maximum Physical Value, Maximum Physical Value Limit, Maximum Bit Value. Perhaps one of these will do what you need.

the rapid command EXIT will destroy the program pointer.

Is this being done with a world zone? If so, I've seen a scenario where the target is taught with tool "tExample", but then the robot sometimes returns to the point using a MoveAbsJ that declares tool "tUserTool0". So the robot axes are correct, but the tcp is not in the predefined world zone.

What do you mean, "Being bad due to swapping the plugs"?
Do you have a copy of the EIO? Is the mapping correct?
-
If I understand correctly, you are trying to keep moving through this logic. I believe the reason the robot is stopping is that you are executing the same robtarget, p1, twice.

I believe the license is by date, not by days of use.

It sounds like you need to do a MoveL to a robtarget with X,Y,Z values of 0,0,0, moving in /wobj:=YourWobj

I am familiar with IDFP. What do you need to know?

Do you have robotstudio? If so, you can use the awesome auto configuration tool. Connect to the robot > look in the "Controller" side window > Expand the "I/O System" dropdown > Right-Click Device Net > Select "Start Autoconfiguration" > Follow the steps.
this tool works like a charm. It's a beautiful thing.

dhlg0110,
I don't know about other people here, but I'm a robot guy, not a PLC guy. The code provided by Robtics is exactly correct, but not complete. In Robtics' example, You would also need to create a Group Input signal named Gi01_PLC_Numeric, and address the signal to match the same range being used by PLC.
If you're still having PLC issues, I am unable to help.

There is no function to call. The reason that this is gone, is that there is no longer a timer tied to the synchronization. It only desynchronizes if a bad enough safety violation causes the system to no longer trust that it is synchronized.
-
You could do it by executing a CRobT, then exporting the various elements of the RobTarget out to Group Outputs.

I'm ignoring your question because I don't know the answer.
Instead I'll ask a different question. Have you defined the arm load for the track? Joint load too high can result from a track that doesn't know what it's carrying.

On RW6.0 and beyond, the new Installation Manager allows you to modify the system instead of completely rebuilding. Earlier RW, using the system builder, is not editable in the way you describe.
-
Off the top of my head, I believe you're looking for ErrWrite.

I know it's possible to set up a USB drive with partitions so that the system reads it as multiple floppy disks. I've never done it myself though, I'm too new to the industry to have worked on the S4 generation of robots. Perhaps someone else here has done it?

I didn't know that Lemster, that's good to know!
