Hello.

I try to remote control movemets, in real time, of a ABB IRB 140 / M2000 with a RS232 from a network camera AXIS 221 or a computer.

Is there any solution of this out there?

Or could I connect a sensor to the robot, that set the robot in 50 -100 positions, depending on its sensor input, and the input signal to the sensor is a RS232 ?

So is there a sensor/box that I can connect to the ABB IRB 140 / M2000 robot, that have a RS232, so I can simulate different input values to the robot, as it is running?

It must be possible to run a program that make the robot move to a position and stay there until a sensor send a value that make the robot move to 1 of 100 positions.

Is there a ready to use solution out there?

Regards Magi
