Screens for RW 5.15

j_proulx

Have older robot systems with RW 5.15 and would like to create custom screens. What software would be needed? I believe you cannot licence RS 5.15 to use ScreenMaker. I do not believe RS 2019 or RS 6.08 ScreenMaker support RW 5.15. Does Flexpendant sdk support RW 5.15? Is there a certain version of Visual Studio that needs to be used?

When you say "cannot license RS 5.15 to use ScreenMaker" -- do you mean re-license / pay and get a new key string to an existing system -- because ScreenMaker has worked with RW 5.15 in RS 5.15 in the past.

I have not had any problems using RS2019.2's SM app.



It is presumed you are entirely aware a licensed version of RS is required.

I used FP SDK 5.15.2005 for my SM projects in RW 5.15.15.

Just had to download Legacy FlexPendant SDK from Developers Center. Thanks all.

I cannot connect to virtual robots RW 6.08.01 and older with RS 2019 ScreenMaker . Must use RS 6.08.01 32 bit. Anyone else have the same issue?

I am not sure whether my problem is same with you or not.
My robotstudio version is 6.08.01(32 bit), Already installed latest version of Flexpendant SDK and robotstudio SDK.When i open screenmaker, Once i open up screenmaker property it shows screenmaker version is 6.9.154, controller 6.9.00 and and flexpendant SDK is 6.9.154. I can see own app show in virtual controller but cannot see in real controller after deploy.

No my issue was not allowing time for the virtual robot to connect using the upper connection icon to look at all the controllers. I can now see all the controllers to connect via screenmaker using ScreenMaker with RS 6.09.
