Logging cycle times to a file

RAPID Programming
1

hello everyone,

I am on an IRC5 with the non activated robotstudio.

I am wanting to code in a way to basically do this:

-Camera takes its image (I already have that programmed)

------the part is then identified (I already have that programmed)

-The cycle starts and runs through the routine (I want to start a CycleTime Start here)

-Part is complete and marked (I want to place a CycleTime Stop here)

The part ID and the cycle time for the process I would like to save into a spreadsheet if possible. Even if I have to extract the information to a spreadsheet that would be fine too.

I have multiple parts that are ran and each have a different cycle time, however, the robot is fed by the same machine which has the same cycle time for all of its processes.

Thank you so much in advace

Use the Clkxxx command to start, stop, read, and reset the clock fto get your cycle time.
