Is it possible to get safemove to work in RobotStudio?

DavidR

Hi
I've made a SafeMove configuration in Visual Safemove in RobotStudio 6.02.01 64bit. Is it possible to write this to the virtual controller and e.g. see how my MTZ zones work? I've tried this but the safe output signal connected to my MTZ does not seem to be activated when jogging in and out of my MTZ.
On the real controller you need to activate the config with a pin code but this is not possible on the VC since the "Authenticate" menu is not accessible i RobotStudio.
Any tips?

Hi David,

I'm not sure about the details but I don't think it is possible. SafeMove runs on separate hardware which isn't simulated by the virtual controller.

Not very sure

The Authenticate menu is not available for a VC managed by a Station, but should be available if you start it separately (Add Controller/Start Virtual Controller) or connect to it from a different RS instance.

Hmm, ok. I have a colleague who says he has done this but maybe he was mistaken. How sure are you Johannes?
Thanks for your reply!
