Yep, installing it from a cold start was the trick. Of course it was something that simple that I never bothered trying.
Thanks for your help everyone!

I'm trying to install the DCS Safe I/O Connect Option with a PAC Code onto an M-10iD with an R30iB Plus controller (V9.30), and it doesn't seem to appear. We tried the usual PAC installation method of: Controlled Start--S/W INSTALL--Option/Robot Library--UD1, but it doesn't work as I can't find that specific option anywhere. We remember running into this issue before when installing DCS options with a PAC, but can't seem to put recall what the solution was. Does anyone have any clues?
Thanks for any help you can provide!
Luckily I found a work around. Funny that Fanuc tech was as helpful as always though.
But on the jogging ipdendant, i went to System>Variables>$MIX_BG. This contains MIX_BG_T [1] thru [8], representing the 8 background logic program slots. After going into the DETAIL screen, i was able to type out my program name in line 1 (_BGLOGIC in my case). On line 2, it seems a 2 represents Normal mode, a 4 represents High mode. And then for Status on line 3: 1 sets it to Stop, 2 sets to Running.
This appears to have worked perfectly for me, hopefully it'll help you out too
I'm trying to setup my background logic program on an SR-6iA (v9.10P/11) from my pc (didn't splurge for the physical TP option), and I'm running into a snag. On the Background Logic setup screen, when i hit F4 [CHOICE] to select my program, nothing happens. No popup list of programs or anything. If I hit F2, F3, or F5 I get the "Program name is not set" message, and I can toggle Mode between Normal and High. I was able to setup and run the program in Roboguide, and all other functions between the jogging iPendant and physical robot are working. I'd appreciate any help I can get!
