Adding new robot models

pebkac000 · February 2011

How do I add new robot models to RS? I have put the new IRB760 rslib file in the folder but do not have a template file so cannot create a station from template.

Hi,

First create a system with System Builder.

Then open an empty RS station and add existing robot system.

RS will now ask you for the robot model.

Hi Henrik

I have tried to follow the instructions.
I have created a system with virtual key and have selected 'addional motors or no IRB manipulator' as selecting anything else brings the selected manipulator into the station.

I then selected 'new station' and selected 'existing system' and selected my saved empty station with the system I configured.

The virtual controller starts however I am not prompted to select a robot model.

I have tried importing the library file however the manipulator does not link to the virtual controller.

Am I missing something?
Thanks
Andrew

webwiz/3754/system.rarHello Andrew,

I am no expert in IRB760 but I have done tests like this before with other robots.

I did a small test and RS asked me for the robot model.

I send you the xml option list that I tested.

I am not sure if it is okay but you can try.

Hi Henrik
I have sorted it. I had the wrong version of RobotWare. You need 5.13.03 which has the IRB460 and IRB760 to select in the manipulator list.

Thanks
