  • Cobotta Calset Concern

    Hi,

    Good Day!

    Right now, we are setting up the Cobotta Robot.
    Can I ask if there are solutions to retain the Calset Data that was used before teaching the robot?
    Thus, I will not always make Calset Operation every start up/power on of Cobotta.

    Everytime I shutdown and Power ON the Robot, there's a pop-up that I need to make Calset.
    After the Calset, when I checked the saved programs, the positions were all offset.

    Thank you in advance for helping me.

    Best regards,

  • CALLING PROGRAM FROM PLC TO MOTOMINI/GP8/GP12

    Hi,

    Like what Sir Fabian Munoz said about this conversation, there are many ways to write the program specially when using Master Job.
    You may also switch working jobs using the state of general purpose Input Signals.
    For example, use the IN#1 to IN#8 as the signal for specifying the type or use any Input Signals.
    Please output the signal of the job you want to work from PLC.
    The robot checks the state of the signal and executes the allocated work job.

    JOB ; MASTER

    DIN B000 IG(#01)
    CALL WORK-A IF B000=1
    CALL WORK-B IF B000=2
    CALL WORK-C IF B000=3
    CALL WORK-D IF B000=4

    There you have it, you can switch jobs.
    Hope this will help you.

  • Manupulating an Input Signal

    Mr. Automan,

    I'm also a Newbie but when I read your email, I just want to share some information based on my understanding on your inquiry so you will not be confused.

    If the communication of the Robot and Machine is thru EIP (Ethernet I/P), the following applies:
    1. When you set OUTPUT from Robot, the Machine or PLC will receive the INPUT.
    2. When you set OUTPUT from PLC/Machine, the Robot will receive the INPUT.

    Don't be confused on the INPUTS and OUTPUTS of Robot and Machine.
    *Robot Output -> Machine/PLC Input
    *Machine Output -> Robot Input

    When you set the communication of Robot and PLC, make Address Allocation for the PLC and General I/O Allocations.
    For me, If I set Output from Robot then I will make confirmation in PLC so the flow between the PLC and Robot will run smoothly and also to make troubleshooting easily.

  • MOTOFIT FORCE SENSOR SET-UP

    Update on Motofit Force Sensor Set-up [Just Sharing]

    Regarding my concern before about Setting-up the Motofit Force Sensor, I found out the problem.
    It's my fault not to check the orientation or proper mounting of The Force Sensor.
    I forgot that every force sensor also have its own orientation.

    Motofit Force Sensor movement should be the same to TOOL Movement.
    The force sensor was installed in opposite direction that's why I encountered the above problem.

  • MOTOFIT FORCE SENSOR SET-UP

    Good Day!

    I'm now encountering problem during set-up of force sensor in GP-8.
    I'm trying to set-up Y- with it's default force value on 20N but alarm occurred during touching of tool on the jig.
    *ALARM 4880
    EXCESSIVE FORCE DETECTION [XYZ]

    I followed the manuals but I got same results.
    This is my first time to encounter this problem because I tried to set-up motofit several times yet I never encounter this problem.

    Do you have suggestions to solve the said concern?


    Thank you and best regards,

  • CALLING PROGRAM FROM PLC TO MOTOMINI/GP8/GP12

    Hi Sir Fabian Munoz

    Thank you very much!

    I understand it but I will also ask, is this master job always running and ready to accept any signal?
    On your example:

    ::Master Job
    if gi1 = 1 call prg1
    if gi1 = 2 call maintenance

    If the prg_1 is running inside the master job, then I turn on the signal to call maintenance, will the maintenance program will work even
    without CALL Maintenance inside Prg1?


    Thank you very much for the help.

  • CALLING PROGRAM FROM PLC TO MOTOMINI/GP8/GP12

    Good Day!


    I just want to ask help on how to call programs in Motomini/GP8/GP12 from PLC.

    Example condition:

    I have 2 or more different programs with different functions, I want to call each program using PLC.
    Do I need to use master job?
    Is there a function in YRC1000 that can solve this inquiry?
    I already have communication in PLC so there's no problem on I/O Signals.


    I knew how to use CALL Function but I think this is only used inside the YRC1000 programs (calling programs on programs).


    Thank you very much in advance.

  • Viewing and Modifying of value of variables created by the force sensor to PLC

    Good Day!

    It's been a while since my last logged in this website.
    It's really a great help for me.

    I have some concerns regarding the use of Variables created by force sensor attached to GP8 Yaskawa Robot.
    For example:
    During using of force sensor I transferred the value to D002 (example value: 2000), then the robot is connected to PLC (Keyence) and Keyence Touch Panel.
    The connection is thru Ethernet I/P.
    How to view the value of variables like D002 in PLC?


    Thank you in advance for the information.

  • How to call Home Position and Second Home Position in GP8 Yaskawa Robot?

    Reintz

    Thank you.
    I already did that instruction before but if there is such a function to call the Home Pos or Second Home Pos, that will be more convenient.
    For example, there is a specific I/O for Home Pos or Second Home Pos so when I'm going to run the program, it will first check if the Robot is in Home Pos or not.

    I think it will be safe if there is such a function to verify the Robot Current position if it is matched to the Home Pos or Second Home Pos for confirmation purposes during program run.
    I'm also searching for the manuals but I still can't find such function that will help me.

    I'm planning to make interlocks in PLC and YRC-1000 to prevent collision.

    Thank you
