How to use the Robot Web Service on CRB 15000 GoFa Virtual Controller

RobotStudio
1

Dear All,

I am not able to access the Robot Web Service via browser on a CRB15000_5_95 Virtual Controller in RobotStudio.

This is what I did:

  1. Open RobotStudio 2024
  2. Click Create
  3. Home > Virtual Controller > New Controller
  4. Configure “Add New Controller” window as follows:
  • Name: CRB15000_5_95
  • Location: C:\Users\was\Documents\RobotStudio\Virtual Controllers
  • Create New
  • Robot Model: CRB 15000 GoFa
  • Variant: CRB 15000 5kg 0.95m
  • RobotWare: 7.12.0
  • Controller: C30
  • Mechanisms: Import from library
  1. Click OK and wait until the everything has been loaded
  2. Controller > Change Options > Options > Enable Externally Guided Motion (EGM) > Apply and rest
  3. Controller > Configuration > Communication > UCdevice:
  • Name: UCdevice
  • Type: UDPUC
  • Remote Address: 127.0.0.1
  • Remote Port Number: 6510
  • Local Port Number: 6599

In the address bar of my browser I enter:

http://localhost/rw/iosystem/signals?json=1

It does not work, the virtual vontroller is running but I can’t access the RWS.

Do you know what the problem could be?

Thanks

Hi!

Thanks, it works now.

I have done the following:

  1. checke the webapp.conf located in C:\Users\was\AppData\Local\ABB\RobotWare\RobotControl_7.12.0\system\appweb.conf
  2. Change the following lines:

====== webapp.conf ======
…

#Listen -1
ListenSecure -1
…

#SSLCertificateFile “./self.crt”
#SSLCertificateKeyFile “./self.key”
…

to

======webapp.conf ======
…

Listen -1

ListenSecure 8080
…

SSLCertificateFile “./self.crt”
SSLCertificateKeyFile “./self.key”
…

  1. Save the file and restart the controller.
  2. Use Postman to send a cURL request: Open Postman > Import > Enter the cURL
  3. Click Import Into Collection > Click Send

It seems like we have to send a curl command (cURL) with Postman, making request directly in the browser using normal URL results in the follwoing error:

-1073414146C:\BUILDAGENTS\SEABB-IS-13900.4_work\329\s\Areas\RobApi2\Components\rws_system\rws_resource_system.cpp[164] Server cannot generate response for given accept header code:-1073414146 icode:-1

Many thanks for your help.
