Hey all, I am a new RS user, and I have been able to get my paths to work for the first day I work on them and whenever I reopen the project it seems to never want to let me auto configure a new path despite it working the day before. It is throwing the warning “AutoConfiguration: Couldn’t JumpTo Target_70 from previous position. You should check configuration on target”. I have messed with the configuration, and nothing seems to change. Let me know if I am doing this wrong or if there is a better resource for answering this question.
There is a small amount of trial and error. You will not always be able to use the auto configuration option. Below are a few of the reasons it might fail in the order of likely hood for your situation.
-
The robot joints are hitting a limit due to the configuration of the starting move. Changing the configuration of the starting move and rerunning auto configuration might fix it.
-
The robot is passing through singularity. Switching key movel’s to movej’s might fix the problem.
-
Your workobject/tcp changed and your robot can no longer reach.
As I said auto configuration will not always work and sometimes you have to change each motion to the correct configuration. Look a the configuration value of the move prior to target 70 and compare it to target 70. If there is a massive change to the joint value that means the robot cannot do those motions in a straight line due to singularity or joint limits.
Thank you, I appreciate the advice. The last one ended up being my issue I was changing tcp during the move.
