If the application frame is set to 0 check to make sure the XY of the calibration grid matches the world frame of the robot.

If you change the frame in the middle of a program does it still pause or is it just when you call a new program with different frames? If possible combine all the motion programs into 1 main program and use IF statements and jump labels to navigate the program. I've done that before to remove the pause.

Your using the wrong "IF" statement. You need to use the "IF (...)" for background logic.

IF (DO[6:]=OFF) , JUMP LBL[1]
$MCR.$GENOVERRIDE=100
LBL[1]

Or just disable DCS all together. Variables - $DCS_CFG - $SYS_PARAM. If that variable is set to 0 DCS is enabled, if its set to 1 its disabled.

Just wondering if anyone's tackled cad-to-path in roboguide using coordinated motion. I'm laser cutting a hexagonal tube in half on a specific angle and i have to rotate the trunnion 300 degrees to complete the cut. Any help or guidance is appreciated!

Check your system Config and see if its mapped to anything in there.

Actually a better one to use for weld length monitoring is

$AWEWELDSTAT[1].$WELD_DIST

$SCR_GRP[1].$M_DST_ENB - Set to True
$SCR_GRP[1].$MOVE_DST - Calculates Distance of TCP movement

You need a bigger robot. 80kg over max payload is too much for that robot.

Run the WR_SET01 program, then run the WR_UPD01 Program. That will initialize your tip wear compensation.

PR[5] = LPOS.

1-10000 is the range for JMP LBL Commands. Jump commands are only specific to the program they are used in. If you use the same LBL in two different programs it will not jump to a different program. Same goes for p[ ]. When you add a new position it will automatically pick the next available P[] in that specific program.

Not sure how you set up your program, weather you have all the groups enabled in your main program or if your calling separate jobs to perform spot welds on the different peds. But the procedure is the same as touching up a spot weld when the gun is mounted on the robot. Move the part so it just touches the contact tip of the stationary shank in the desired location, touch it up and set your start distance and end distance. Let me know if your looking for more specific information.

What controller is it? I'm not sure about older robots but the only way to remove a group in the newer ones is in controlled start with the core software.
