OK, so I figured out the Cold start, but that did not solve my issue. I also was able to search the programs, and found nothing messing with the $SHELL_CFG.$SEL_TYPE variable.
Doctor_C, It looks like UI is configured to use the UI9-UI17 for PNS, and that was indeed the issue, as once I disabled all of the UOP I was able to switch to Other for program selection!
Unfortunately, this causes me another issue as I would like to use the Standard Signals output by the robot for digital communication with a PLC (Things like Running, and Remote start, and enable that are part of the CRMA16 I/O). Is there a way to enable these but disable the PNS par of the UOP?
Thanks,

Hmmm... My function menu does not have a "Cycle Power" Option...

I will have a look at the search tool.
The system prompts me to do a power cycle once I change the program selection method to have it take effect, and it still seems to be using the PNS program selection method even after I make the manual change to "OTHER".
Alternatively, I am debating doing a factory reset on the system, do you think that this has a chance of removing the restrictions on changing this setting? I don't really have any other programs or settings special right now, my only fear is locking myself out of some part of the system or needing to rehome the position sensors, kind of a "I don't know what I don't know about a factory reset" situation.
Thank you for your help, it is very much appreciated

I don't have any BG Logic programs loaded or running, but I do have a bunch of .VR programs I cannot view or delete. Is there a way to get rid of these? They are from the previous owner.
Is it possible I am not cycling power correctly? All the other changes I make that required a power cycle seemed to work just fine, but its almost like this change is protected, or part of some boot sequence I cannot find, as it only reverts after a power cycle.
Thanks for your help

I am having some issues trying to change our Fanuc LR Mate 200iD's program select mode. It came to us in the PNS select mode, and I would like to use the OTHER mode to simplify things.
However, when I try to change the mode and cycle power by shutting the main power off and then on, it simply resets back to the PNS mode of program selection.
Can any one help me out with this one?
Thanks!
