Thank you.

That is true. What I was trying to figure out is if I am only running 30% of 250mm/s how I could run 100% of 250mm/s. Or at least enough to make sure the weld doesn’t burn through or etc. while welding in T1

Sadly it’s already at 100

So we are slowly implementing locking T2 out. The only issue I have is if we do this. We are having issues with welding in T1 because our robots were set to im guessing 30% so my question is. What is $MSKT1MOTLIM do? Is that my issue here? I know there are a bunch of variables limiting things but this one I am not sure about.

Yea we figured out they used a pneumatic grease gun with the facility air lines. Blew R1 axes 2, R2 axes 1. Was a lovely Saturday. Going to make sure they suffer with a hand pump now. They also didn’t run my greasing program after they greased it. Also left the caps in when greasing 😬. Thanks guys

Our maintenance staff greased one of our robots and it is now drifting a lot when servo power is dropped. Causing collisions randomly in air moves and anytime. Any feedback to what they could have done wrong?

Robo_Eng_13 did they ever add such thing? To change levels from the PLC? Trying to use autologin3 to assign different levels n I’m guessing I can’t 😢

I was thinking there was a way to have badge access from the HMI which logs into autologin3 to the pendant and whatever badge number you log into the HMI with, that would correlate you to let’s say John’s” badge. Then that would give “John’s” access level and restrictions. Instead of it always defaulting to install user level. Or if you could toggle an input on, which would correlate to John’s badge number and then that would set the user level for restrictions.

When using $AUTOLOGIN3 is there a way through the plc to have it so you can login as different users with different levels? I’ve tried to figure it out but am stuck. We have badge access from the HMI and a edit lock button that goes to the controller which auto logs in install user. I’m wondering if you can have it log in different users also. To many cookies in the cookie jar and I’m trying to work with what we have, to make restrictions on editing. We use BGLOGIC for auto login I’m pretty sure.

With the variable $WLD_PRC_ENA you can change it from weld start to arc start correct? If so does it revert all your weld starts to arc starts? What I’m trying to do is add start delay in a few of our welds and some of our machines are arc start and some weld start due to have different companies doing installs. Just curious on what the actual difference is?

If I am to export an XML file, does it remove it from the controller or does it create a copy and add that copy to whatever device is selected and or you are using? I’ve never had to use XML files but we are having to many newer techs think they know what they are doing but don’t. So now I am having to restrict access
