Hi Everybody

I have a big question for you maybe answer can be easy for you :slight_smile: I want to use robot tcp speed. For exaple I made a speed data as V125. And V125 TCP speed is 125. Then I want to see this value on my touch screen panel by profibus connection. I have a profibus unit on my units.

I tried to make virtual unit then
create analog output as deneme then
create system output as TCP speed on deneme
then tried to write this value to a group output but ı coundt

Please can you help me about this subject. I hope you can find a soulitoun for me :))
Thanks All

Hi

You could try it with the following EIO.CFG

Best regards

Marcel

Thanks Marcel ı will try that. Can I read current tcp speed?

thanks again

With that configuration it will be sending the TCP speed out all the time because it’s defined using a System Output which is always updating even if your robot program is stopped!

Hello Ercan, Have you tried that ?
