IRB340 pick and place station

Justintosh

Hi, I am new to Robotstudio and I am trying to create a pick and place station for IRB340 using Robotstudio.

 

I was following the online tutorial videos and have sucessfully created the Infeeder, the VacuumGripper and the OutPallet. These components were working fine. However, when I was trying to follow the following tutorial video, I encountered some problem. http://www.robotstudio.com/tutorial/16b/SetupSimulation.html

 

At the time 02:39, I was not able to find the Source Object doNewBox and Source Signal IRBXXX from my dropdown list.

 

At the time 02:53, Target Signal diBoxInPos and diVacuum were not found from the Target Object IRBXXX as well.

 

Anyone konw what is the reason that cause this problem. Thanks guys. Much appreciated.

Hi,

 

Since the I/O signals of the Infeeder, the VacuumGripper and the OutPallet should be connected to I/O signals from the controller you have to make sure these I/O signals exists in the virtual controller.

 

This is how you add I/O signals to the virtual conroller:

1. Go to the Offline tab and expand the system.

2. Expand the Configuration.

3. Double click on I/O and under Signal you can add I/O signals by right clicking somewhere on the list and choose Add Signal. If you want your signals to be assigned to a special unit you can add a new unit under the Unit title.

 

When you have created your new signals. You can go back to Add I/O connections.
