in ScreenMaker
Hi,
 I have built a screen that has a run routine button that is assigned to run a home routine, When i deploy it to the flexpendant it appears greyed out. Any ideas?

 

Thanks

    Hi GARY.

    This button will be enabled if:

     

    - There is a valid RAPID program with no errors and a Program Pointer

    - RAPID program is not running

    - The system must be in Manual Mode <- this is an option, so you could allow this button in Auto by changing the  property called AllowInAuto to TRUE.

     

    This buttons relies on the module ScreenMaker.SYS, just please make sure you have it.

    Hi Gary,
     

    you can find these files in the folder:

     

    C:Program FilesABB Industrial ITRobotics ITMediapoolRobotWare_5.XX.optionsgtpusdk

     

    You have to load both cfg files, and copy the screenmaker.sys file in the home folder ( I believe).
