move object with robot

robotics nerd

hey, i have programed a robot to move a euro pallet, and done this with I/o signals and I/O simulator.
and the robot is moving along the path like i should, but the robot picks up the pallet but after  a few seconds the I/O signal changes from 1 to 0, when it should not according to the RAPID program. whats wrong ?

Have you tried using a move instruction with a fine point prior to the WaitDI/SetDI/Reset? If you use a "zone"-point, then the program pointer will run ahead and execute forthcoming instructions before the motion of the move instruction is completed, but if you use fine point then program execution of subsequent instructions will not proceed until the motion of the fine-point has been completed. You can also use the option "InPos" to stop the programpointer from running ahead.
