    looks like your best solution is reteaching the points - not all motions which are possible in JOINT, are easily doable (or possible at all) using linear interpolation. In your case, the configuration string of the position does not fit, so the controller posts an error. It should be possible to edit the config string as far as I remember, but I guess you're a newbie to Fanuc and it won't be easy, nor safe :icon_wink:

    Sometimes teaching a mid point help on that too

    System variable $SCR_GRP[1].$COORD_MASK sets which frames are available to cycle through. Setting that to 31 should make them all visible. It goes something like Joint=1, Jogframe=2, World=4, Tool=8, and User=16. You set the number equal to the value of the frames you want to use, hence 31 equals all.


    For your other issue, I cant really help.

    Great that mask advice worked


    Thanks

    Allo


    I have an RJ2 s420iw robot with s420iu software.


    It runs ok but the world coordinate is missing when I select them. I get tool, joint and jogfrm. No world


    Also when I setup uframe=1 in program or.manually all the points get taught with frame 0.


    I can use the utility and convert to uframe1.


    Any ideas what is wrong?

    Does anyone know if and where the variable name for result % is ?


    I need to hard code a low limit on vision result across 80 parts.


    Thanks

    Looking around in the manual, it looks like there is the system variable $SYS_TIME.$HOUR that stores the current hour, however, I cannot find this variable in the currently simulated V8.20 handling pro controller I have running.


    I know it exists in the older V7.70 software, as I have used it before.


    Will try it. Thanks

    Allo,


    Is it possible to read the robot date or time within a tp program?


    For example between 8am and 8 pm run this routine #1. Otherwise run #2.


    Thanks

    You will have to trace them out but the signals for R01-4 come from DV1 I.C. on the main cpu board and R05-8 come from DV2 I.C.


    Will check it out.


    Thanks

    Greetings,


    I am wondering if it might be possible to use the Robot IO and route them into a the cabinet instead of through the EE Cable?
    I have need for a couple outputs and would like to use them and not install Model a or B interface.


    Question is, where does it connect from?


    Thanks.

    Greetings,


    I have some programs where I rotate axis 6 base on a rotary pattern count. A part is mounted on the robot and I want to repeat motion 5 times. So I rotated the pattern based on 72 degrees increments.


    The patterns get repeated but it does odd things like inserting a 360 rotation before arriving at the correct path, usually once in the routine.


    Does anyone know why that would be?

    Allo,


    I have a robot Rj3 6.4 controlled via PC. It runs handlingworks and passes karel programs and variables to the robot for part data.
    the paths are defines as nodes.


    I'm try to figure out out to edit the so called program since I don't see it.


    All I can see is vr files named after the various parts.


    Maybe someone has experience with handlingworks?


    Thanks.
