RobotStudio event

can not build stations

Options

These days,I open my robotstudio but i find that I can not build stations as before.

For example, I build a Template System with IRB6640_180kg_2.55m.But the controller status:0/0,can not connect.

 

There is no any robot.

 

anxiously,would some one know what?

 

I have reinstalled  the software.

    Has any firewall been installed on our PC? In that case, try to disable it and see if it helps.
    Can you start old controllers?
    Can you open the demo stations?
    Can you create and start systems using the System Builder?

    Thank you very much.I have checked all the items,and I do not understand the middle item"Can you open the demo stations?".Now I find another phenomenon :when I am opening a packed file,there is a stange phenomenon.The item of "RobotWare version" is none,nothing.

    That may be help to console the above problem.

    The demo stations are available in the folder

    C:Users<user name>DocumentsRobotStudioStations

     

    Note: The above path is from a Vista PC. On other windows versions it may be different. On XP you should look for the folder My Documents/RobotStudio/Stations

     

    The demo stations are called:

     

    Demo Exhaust Pipe.rspag
    Demo FlexLoader.rspag
    Demo Palletizer.rspag
    Demo TwoRobotsAndConveyor.rspag

     

    Maybe something happened with your installation of RobotWare. Perhaps you should try to reinstall it.

    When you installed RobotStudio, did you also installed the RobotWare?

    If not, do that and try again.

    Hi,
     

    Do you have the version of RobotWare asked for installed on your computer? Open Windows Explorer, and browse to the path displayed in the error message. Is the path correct? Is RobotWare 5.12.01 installed?

    Hi,
          Is it not because of the software is installed in "D"drive?

    The station you tried to open, that gave rise to the error message above, was apparently built with RobotWare installed on C:. If you want to move RS stations from one computer to another (or if you reinstall not using default paths) you should create Pack&Go files of your stations prior to moving your station, of modifying your installation.
     

    The workaround is to open the program.id file of the robot system of the station and edit the RobotWare search path to point to the new location.

     

    Note: If you change RobotWare version, you need to I-start the system, which will cause you to loose all configuration changes and RAPID programs of your controller. Therefore it is not recommended to change RobotWare version.

    Hi,
       Henrik Berlin,thank you very much!It works when I install it on the C drive.

     

    Now,there is another phenomenon.

    There is a tip:

     

       "The driver for your NVIDIA GeForce2 MX/MX400 might be outdated.

       Would you like to search for an updated graphics driver?"

    Is not my version of the computer monitor problem?Right to use this software have any effect?

    RobotStudio is very dependent on the graphics driver of your graphics card. The graphics card generates the 3D view. Many problems that our users experience with RobotStudio are solved by updating the graphics driver. That is why we have added this message box to remind the user to update the driver once in a while. So what you should do is to go to the nVIDIA home page and look for the latest driver of your graphics card (the model is stated in the message). Pressing "Yes" in the dialog will automatically take you to the nVIDIA home page.
