Robot sometimes stopped

Bogusław

I have a problem, I'm looking for help!

The robot stops at  indicator
IF nModel <> RobGI_Model AND RobGI_Model <> 0 THEN 
every now and then

I have no idea why. Maybe someone will notice the problem.

What do you mean by "robot stops"?  Program execution stops or the program is running and the program pointer appears to be stuck on that line of code?  Which instance of that code is it?  There are two.

Today, I managed to take a picture of the situation, probable problem is the indicator went too far, what should I do?

I cannot view that link because I don't have a sign on there.

Hey Boguslaw, Could you please provide us with the link access?

I noticed there's an issue in the following instruction:

IF nModel_R33 <> RobGI_Model AND RobGI_Model <> 0 THEN  

It is followed by a RETURN;, but there are no further instructions after the RETURN command. Additionally, there should be another routine beforehand that sets the value for nModel_R33 and the two group inputs.

Also, the syntax should be written as:

nModel_R33 = RobGI_Model = 0) THEN  IF (nModel_R33 = RobGI_Model) OR (

Otherwise, it will always evaluate to 0.

In general, there's another issue:

IF FALSE THEN  

If FALSE, then what? You need to declare a variable that defines whether it’s true or false.

Greets,

Hello,

Is RobGI_Model  a GInput?

Then you have to test it with:

IF (nModel <> GInput(RobGI_Model)) AND (GInput(RobGI_Model) <> 0) THEN

You should have a message in logger for this type of error.

Hello, 
I did the analysis, the signal in the pLC PO_AutoON is lost.
Robot stops, R - robot, W - Pointer

R       MoveL Offs(pBrush_02_M01,0,0,50), vmax, z5, BrushTool_2_R33\WObj:=wobj_Brushing_R33;

      PulseDO\High\PLength:=3, PO_OK_TO_Brush_R33;

      PulseDO\PLength:=3, PO_T3_BrushDone_R33;

      !Robot wait eco signal from plc brush done

W      WaitDI PI_Brush_OK_R33, 1;

Abb suggests there is a communication problem, but why always in the same place.

Hi ...

I saw that your zones are not fine, so perhaps the pulse is being given at different times when running in automatic and manual mode (the robot's movement is much slower and takes much longer to reach its destination). Depending on the logic used in the PLC, these times may be causing a problem - use a signal analyzer to check this.

Try using a fine movement before pulsing your signal and see if anything changes.

Check if in 100% manual execution the robot is stopping in the same way or the program continues.

Good Job

On the Pulse topic, I avoid it always.  Causes too many issues.

Hi Lee Justice

Would you think of offering som coaching with my assignment with robotstudio, i would definately compensate for your time. 

Best regards

What is it that you need to do with Robotstudio?  Be advised that I don't use it much.
