API controller switch AutoManual

Saibel

Hello!

I wonder if somebody knows an API function that can switch virtual controller to AUTO and MANUAL modes. I would like to do it automatically before I make sync to stationcontroller.

By the way, sometimes than I save a program via API I get a temporary RAPID module in my program file. Robot Studio generates the module to execute "Move to target" command. Of course, I don't want this module in my program. It helps to switch controller to manual and back to auto again before I save the program. Do you know a better way to do?

Nope, there is no such command in the RobotStudio API.

For controlling the controller you need WW SDK, then you can do both to the Virtual and to your factory robots.

Is there a better way?

Sure, just go to the Program Browser right click the controller and select Refresh, then if you see a RsTempMod just delete it.
