Attach signal to a tool

RobotStudio
1

Hello everyone, i started to work on robotstudio since one week an I want to create a little program with an IRB 140 ,a custom gripper and a cube which is moved.

I created a tool with 2 positions GripOpen and GripClose, now I want to attach these positions to an output signal called ‘GripOpen’.

How can I do that ? :wink:

Thanks in advance !

Hi

If you define your gripper as a mecanism you can add an event that runs it to a pose when the signal change state.

hi,

You can use Event manager to link 2 signal

Hi, thank you for your answers :smile: , now i’ve another issue, I created a path with 4 targets, i’ve followed instructions to place the tool in the good position but i’ve two problems:

  • I can’t compile the program, the following error appear :
    “IRB140_5kg_0: Could not set program pointer to entrypoint for task T_ROB1 Please check your program for errors”

  • Can I control station signals with RAPID program, because i’ve already tried SETDO and SET/RESET command and it doesn’t work

Thanks in advance !

IO used in rapid program has to be in the robotsystem. I don’t think you can use station signals. They are not a part of the robotsystem
