I also want to know where this picture from?

Thank you,Skooter.

Hi,Everyone.

As the attached picture of an ABB robot (2600) drive unit.The red circle is the power supply cable for one motor.I wonder that is the voltage level for each motor the same,how can I get the value?Whether the voltage is changing over time?

Thanks advance.

Line 49 you insert a timer that you start

Line 51 you insert a stop timer

Once your programme is fnished you will see how long it has been running.

don't forget to reset at the start of the program

I need the frequency of the line executed ,not the time elapsed.

e.g:I have a program running on a robot,it has 100 lines of codes, now it's running.I want to know how many time the 50th line run up to now.The figure will increase if the program keep running.

Hello,

I use PC SDK to develop a program , display ABB robot status.I want to know how many times that a dedicated program line executed, how can I make it, is there any interface I can use?

Thanks a lot.

Dear replyer,

As captioned,I want to get the executed times of a program line which is running in a Fanuc robot (R-30iB).

Is there any system variable stored this figure?

Thanks.

The manual you are looking for is called "Fanuc Robotics System R-30iA Controller Software Reference Manual"

That is the last good version of it that I have seen and it isn't that good. It hasn't been updated in a while and is missing many variables, but still better than nothing.

Thanks very much.

I'm not sure how many or which certain variables.Can you share me the manual ?

Thanks.

If you want to read UO[2] you can read the content from the webserver. Just replace the IP address below "127.0.0.1" with the actual IP address of your robot. This pulls in the state of all IO so your program would then need to find just UO[2] and then read the state.

http://127.0.0.1/MD/IOSTATE.DG

Do you know where I can find the comments for the system variables of the webserver?For example the variables in "SYCLDINT.VA".

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,HawkME.We tried this way before.But the update frequency is low (about 2 seconds/update), if we want to get a real-time variable such as the torque, it seems not fast enough.

Is there any other good way?

We user C#.

How can we poll the status via http request? Is it for free?

Thanks.

Pull to another Program.

Are you just wanting to check these variables manually by navigating the webserver or are you trying to pull this information into another program?

I want to read Fanuc robot variables ,suach it's running status, motor current, temperature ,torque.

The previous question maybe because of peripheral unit board not mounted.

What "$MOR.$PG_MCTL" stand for ,and where I can find all of the system variables' comments?

Thanks.

Well now you tell me it's for a PC

How fast do you consider real time? What's your purpose for this? Are you willing to spend money?

There are different methods for communicating robot to PC so after you answer I can make a recommendation.

Sorry for my un-clear previous information.

For real time ,I expect that I can get the state as long as the motor state changed and I don't want to spend money.

Plus questoin:

I can see the UO list in a virtual robot system (via web server), while in a real robot (R-30iB) I can't ,is there some setting in the controller?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks.

Is there a good way to read UO[3] real-time,for example via ethernet port to a PC?

Thanks for your reply.

I don't want to change any program in the robot and realize reading the state of motor.I checked the UO list ,UO[3] is used for indicating program running ,plz refer to the attached PNG.

Looking forward to receiving your reply.

I wana read the "motor on" state for FANUC robot like an ABB robot from outside ,for example , read SI,SO or other register, if possible, which register I can read ?

Thanks.

The robot web page allows you to search for system variables, such as $MOR_GRP[X].$CUR_DIS_TRQ[X] for q=torque. I have no idea how often they are updated however and if you want to use it in an application you're stuck doing some kind of web interface.

It needs username & password,is there any universal passwords?

Thanks.

Quote from HawkME

Is your robot connected to the network? Try opening a web browser and typing in the robots IP address.

Is any other "free" and convenient ways(without roboguide) to access or read robot parameters ,such as motor current, motor or controller temperature, torque?

Thanks in advance~
