Digital Input overflow

RobotStudio RobotStudio S4

Hello,

When attempting to restore a “real” robots program/parameters in the VC/QuickTeach - we get the following error::grinning:

  1. 71015 Error: Digital Input overflow 0122 16:33.17
    DescriptionReason:
  • Number of digital input channels
    for board Scanner is greater
    than 200

This error DOES NOT OCCUR on the real robot, just in the VC.

Seems that something is not correct in the VC’s implimentation of IOPLUS option.

Because witrh IOPLUS, you can define more than 200 input channels with devicenet CAN2 - see backup for gsd file.:rage:

How can we make this work on the VC :question:

Tom

Dear Thomas J,

We have found an error in the virtual controller regarding signals with signal number >200. This is already solved and the solution will be included in RW 4.0.100 that will be released week 11, 2004.

For external users please contact your local ABB to get hold of the new version.

Best regards

Hello Ulrika!

Here is another example of the input overflow problem with a 3.0 VC

EIO.zip

The customer writes:

Hi Tom!

Here is my EIO file that will load into my robot controller, but not into

the Robot Studio’s virtual controller baseware 3.0.

Thanks,

Dear Thomas J,

The solution mentioned above includes both Input and Output overflow, for VitrualController 4.0.

The “virtual support” for 3.0 VC is limited and that VC is to be used as is.
