The Robot has pallet pro option, does this option create registers also? There is about 90 registers and programs referencing those registers that were not there before doing a INIT Start.

For some reason after I did the INIT start, there are still programs that are not default. Any ideas why?

If I do a factory reset on my robot will I lose all options on the robot? This is a robot that was purchased 3rd party and has a bunch of garbage and setting in it that I don't want to go through. I believe some options were added added to it after the original purchase and do not want to lose them. Thanks in advance.

First time using/programming a scara robot. I feel this is a simple question but after 3 calls with Fanuc tech support with no answer, apparently it is not. Before I hard wired in the fence circuit to the robot, i programmed and taught all positions. Now that the fence circuit is wired in I want to touch up a position but i cannot jog the robot because I get the fence open alarm. I am using iRProgrammer and have no teach pendant and no physical switch to take it out of AUTO mode, so my issue is that i cannot get the robot to reset the alarm because I cannot get it out of AUTO. My only workaround this was to unplug my JRM18 plug I wired and replace it with the Jumper plug that came with the robot.
Has anyone come across this issue?

Here is a picture of the program/IO and the how the button is configured

Hello,
I just learned how to setup a custom HMI on the teach pendant. I created a simple screen that can start the robot using a system variable, stopping the robot using a digital output, and changing the speed using a register. My problem is, I tried to add a button that will reset the robot alarm. I double mapped my UI 5 (Reset) to DI 120. My button is pretty straight forward, the data type is DI, data index is 120, and the Type is Logical. My understanding is that this would turn on DI120 but i get a alarm "Write Error" FRIPToggleButton2: DIN[120]=1.
Any thoughts or help on how to setup a button to turn on a Input through the custom HMI on the teach pendant would be great.
Thanks.
Update: I mapped my UI 5 to a flag register and then had my button turn on a output. Then i had to run a background logic program to monitor that output and then turn on/off the flag. This way works but i feel there should be a better way to handle this.

Sorry for the confusion. The honda connector that I have in the field (which was not turning on any inputs) i brought back to our shop and plugged it into another robot (same type and controller) and supplied 24V to input 1 and it worked here.
I cannot figure out what the issue is. I am bashing my head over it.

On the virtual controller back up the robot how you would normally ( I always select MC) then go to "My workcells" folder, open whichever project it is, open "Robot1" then open MC folder and the backup will be in there

I am having a weird problem with my connector on my inputs. I am on a 30iB plus mate controller, and a 50 pin connector and wired exactly to the pin out. I cannot get any of the inputs to work, i have setup my inputs on rack 48 slot 1 start 1 and i have confirmed that i am getting 24V to input 1, yet it does not turn on. I have a similar cell at our shop and thought maybe the wiring was wrong on the connector but when i plugged that same cable into that robot and put 24V to the input 1, it turns on and works fine. Is there some setting or configuration i am forgetting to set in the robot? its been a while since i set up the one in our shop and don't recall having any issues or if i configured the robot to make it work.

Okay i figured it out. I needed to keep Tool select at 0 and then change the first No from 0 to 1. thanks for your help Fabian

I already had that tool frame taught with 22.5 degrees. I linked my User model to my DCS Cartesian Check under Target Model. Now when i go back to my User Model and try to change item 4 to 1 (tool frame 1) it says "unregistered tool frame".
I tried going to my tool frame under DCS and tried entering 1 under Tool Select and it gave me the same message

I am creating a DCS zone around my tool but have a problem. For whatever reason our engineer offset the plate that mounts to J6 by 22.5 degrees. So when i put J6 at 0 degrees the tool is actually at 22.5 degrees. I created a box around my tool but there is no option to offset about J6. When i look at the the DCS zone around my tool it by default wants to match where J6 is at. Any ideas how to correct this?

At this point in the project i don't have an option to add a backstop. HawkME... i haven't worked with IR vision in many many years. Is it possible to set up the camera to find each part (There is 18 now) and call up different camera programs depending on which part is being currently ran?
-
I have a project that is running 9 different part types that are all similar they just have different diameter sizes and thickness. The parts are coming down a conveyor and the camera will snap a picture and send the coordinates to the robot. What i am trying to accomplish is having one "Pick" PR and then use a offset to adjust for the part thickness. I know i have to set up each part type in the vision set up but am i able to use one PR and offset the tool to adjust for the part thickness (Z). I am trying make this simple for the end user so if anything happens they will only have to touch up one point.
Thanks in advanced for any input.

I cannot seem to figure out how to move an object across a conveyor that has a pitch on it. If i create a conveyor that is straight i have no problem because its only moving alone 1 axis. Also i have a conveyor that moves up and down on a pivot and i am having the same issue. I need it to move up and down on Z axis and be able to tilt up and down. I created the conveyor cell in the "machine" section and added a link for the tray and the picot conveyor. I set the motion control type to device I/O but again only allows me to move the object along 1 axis when i turn the bit on. Any help is appreciated.

I have been using Roboguide mainly for offline programming. I have created a cell and want to simulate a conveyor moving up and down and not sure how to. I have searched the help topics in roboguide and says i need to create a cell with "Pick Pro". The only options i have are handling tool(which i used to create the cell), Paint Pro, And Weld pro. I cant find anything on fanuc's website with Pick Pro. Anyone have any ideas?
I have the latest software of roboguide also.

I would like to create a custom HMI on the teach pendant and found a manual on it using SharePoint but seems pretty complex. I have never used SharePoint and seems like it would take a long time to figure how to use it. Does anyone know of any training available or any other user friendly software programs to create a custom HMI?
Thanks in advanced.

I have SNPX option on a LR Mate and i'm having trouble getting the HMI (Automation Direct) to communicate to the robot. I can ping the HMI through the robot but cannot get it working the other way. I am using C-more software to program the HMI. Can anyone help with this?
-
Does any one have any experience setting up a C-More HMI to work with a R-30ib mate plus controller. I have experience with these but working with a Allen Bradley PLC.
I have a manual i found but the set up process is for using Cimplicity. I have all the options loaded on the robot to be able to do this i just need help figuring out the initial set up and how to address a tag that would tie into my button so it send a output to the robot.Thanks in advanced...

I always assumed that within the POSREG.VR it saved Position Register data and also regular Position data. that does not seem to be the case. How can i transfer my position data to another robot? i do not want to edit one by one all my positions.
