Hello,
I am new to Motoman robots (primarily a Fanuc programmer), and will be traveling out of country to do some service and upgrades on a three robot MIG welding cell, with what appears to have three external axes on one of the robots. I have no idea what the cell looks like, or exactly how it functions.
The cell is comprised of three MA1440 robots with Mig guns, running on DX200 controllers.
I have been provided backups of all 3 robots, and have been bumping and grinding my way through the Motoman manuals trying to get a better understanding of how everything works. Unfortunately I have no physical robot to practice or try things on, so I want to ensure I have as good an understanding as possible of the operations I will need to perform.
I have a few questions which I can't seem to find answers for in the manuals or by searching the forum;
-In the following position rung, there appears to be three external axis positions being called, how would I create this instruction? Are all three moves automatically inserted if the job has these three motion groups active?
MOVJ EX040 VJ=100.00 PL=0 +MOVJ EX041 +MOVJ EX042This is the header info for that ^ job:
//INST
///DATE 2012/06/25 00:49
///ATTR SC,RW
///GROUP1 ST1
///GROUP2 ST2
///GROUP3 ST3-In the following instruction rung, the IG#(4) that is referenced, I am assuming this is an input group (I assume this is the same as Fanuc Group Input), but cannot find where they are configured?
IFTHENEXP IG#(4)=4 OREXP IG#(4)=14-Is there a file in the backup that would show me how the input signals are mapped? (in Fanuc this would be the ioconfig.dg file). Are there any other files from backup that would be helpful for me to review to get a better understanding of the robot configuration?
Thanks in advance!

I think I'm setting both signals at once currently, I'll start there.
I don't see an AckErrorDialog option either.Thanks for the reply

Hello All,
I have an IRB1200 with an IRC5 running RW Ver. 6.06.
I have the robot running in auto, communicating with the PLC, and I'm setting Motors ON, Start, and PP to Main signals via the PLC without issue.
HOWEVER, I cannot for the life of me get the system inputs for reset emergency stop or reset execution error signal to work. I also do not get a system output for execution error when I expect I should be (such as when the Light curtain which is tied to Auto Stop safety chain is broken). The emergency stop system output is working.
I reset the condition (IE, clear the light curtain and verify the signal to Auto Stop chain is closed, or reset the remote E-stop and verify the general stop safety chain is closed), I turn motors on, and I pulse the input configured to reset execution error.
But the event messages 90205 (Auto Stop Open) and 90206 (General Stop Open) never get acknowledged.
I have to physically acknowledge it using the teach pendant to get the robot running again.I sometimes get a 20148 Confirm Rejected message in the Event Log.
I've verified the inputs are being read by the robot. Ive triple checked my system IO configuration. I've verified the signals are pulsed for at least half a second.
What am I missing?
EIO.cfg and SYS.cfg attached.
