I have and RJ-2 controller with a Fanuc robot and have recently run into an odd problem. When running linear move commands in Auto mode, I notice significant slowdown when the robot has to change tool orientation. However, running programs in T2 mode, I see that the joints can each individually spin much faster than any joint spins at these problem areas. Is this representative of some auto-mode-specific joint speed limits, or an artifact of the linear move command, or something else entirely? Have combed the manual, but would appreciate any insight from the community.

Hello,
We have had our S-420iW for a while now and are really happy with it. In an effort to clean up wiring we started looking into the DS and DP ports labeled 1-3 (Pedestal, J1, J3 respectively). Does anyone know what type of connectors these are? They don't look like standard mil. Spec. connectors like the EE connector.
Thanks for the help,
NathanI attached some pictures in case that helps!

So we have our S-420iW RJ2 operational but we do not currently have the ability to compile .LS programs. Does anybody have a source or a copy of a tool that can make help with this conversion from .LS to .TP?
Any advice would be appreciated,Nathan.

Does anyone know if Fanuc will even sell the software. The robot we have is in the same position and we are rather stuck with how to move forward.

How would we go about reloading the system software? We've done some research and haven't found any guidance about that process. Is there a good resource we could use?

So we got the controller to boot up. It appears there was a short in the Operator box ON button. We are now seeing a large number of errors. I have added more pictures to the album found here: https://goo.gl/photos/VbGE5qCFrGgqzLQg6
Additionally can someone help us diagnose the sequence that happens at startup?

Thank you again for all your help. Feeling like we are very close to seeing this robot move! -
Thank you so much,
Any idea where they might got in the controller? Here are more pictures of my setup. My inclination is that the 24V and 0V got to CP5. The other four wires appear to got to CRS8A and CRS8B based on continuity testing of the controller's shipped configuration.I have created an album of pictures of the controller setup in case more documentation is helpful :https://goo.gl/photos/VbGE5qCFrGgqzLQg6

I have found this diagram, but the diagram doesn't indicate where to connect the +24V and 0V to...

So I bought a S-420iF and this is my first time working with an Operator's Box.
When I opened the operator's box up I found a wire had been cut that appears to power the board. I am trying to determine where to reconnect these wires.

Hello,
I am about to purchase a KR150 Robot w/ KRC1 Controller. The goal of this machine is to be used as a large format 3D printer. As such I will need to be able to stream a long set of positions to it from a PC (roughly 30,000). When we did this on a modern Fanuc we were able to update postition registers over TCP/IP but on this older controller that is not possible (from my reading). My question is: What is the best manner to be able to run to a nearly infinite number of positions given that each position is about 2 seconds apart in travel time?
Based on research my options are:RS-232
Unreliable and has potential to through unclearable errors (based on other posts).Device Net
I don't know what additional hardware would be required or where to buy that hardware. Appears to be more reliable.I would appreciate all advice, potential reference material, or even locations to order parts from.
Thank you all for your time.
