PC SDK

How to use the PC SDK in manual mode,

it is possible to avoid “remote write access in Manual mode” on theFPU ?

Hi than,

have you requested masterhip from PC SDK, in your scenario?
Do you want to know if you can avoid the question on the FlexPendant wher you need to say that it is OK for the other client (your PC SDK application in this case), to take mastership?

From PC SDK Application Manual:

Manual and automatic mode

When the controller is in manual mode, the FlexPendant has priority to write access.

Mastership will not be given to a remote client unless an operator explicitly allows this

through the FlexPendant. At any time, the operator can click

Revoke on the FlexPendant to

get the write access back.

In automatic mode, the client who first requests write access will get it. If a remote client has

taken mastership of a domain other remote clients will not be allowed write access, but will

get an exception if they try. For the operator, there is no way to revoke mastership to the

FlexPendant, but to switch the operating mode of the controller to manual.

As for a remote client, such as a PC SDK application, however, mastership handling has to

be carefully implemented by the application programmer.

Hi Nikals

Yes i have mastership over the controller, works fine in auto.
It is to a sensor input, from a 2D camera, it is not OK, when will modpos i manual,
it is old code from S4, which worked fine with a serial port.

Have tryed with ABB optical tracking option, without luck.

I will test sensor interface over TCP / IP,if I can find some documentation
