Robotware compatibility error with IRC5

RobotStudio RobotStudio S4
1

Hi,

Recently I install Robotstudio 6 and robotware (same version) to control 2 industrial robots: IRB140, IRB360 and IRB2400. Those robot controllers have a old RobotWare version, hence I can’t work in offline mode until robotware upgrade was made.

I try to upgrade RobotWare version into IRC5 controllers with System Builder and Instalation Manager, but those procedures were unsuccessful because I need robotware license for real controller. I try to have support from ABB Brazil but after 1 week I dont have any answer to help with that issue.

I did C-start in one IRC5 controller and delete all system (IRB360) and now only have a operational system with IRC5 controller of IRB140 robot. Our university bought 3 industrial robots for research but We cant’t work suitably because ABB support isn’t closer with that issue.

I appreciate your help.

Regards.

Hi,

What are the controller numbers?

Did you followed Migration proccess of RobotWare?

What was the version of robotware you started with? Much older IRC5’s main computer can only be upgraded with 5.xx version.

Hi,

Thanks for reply. I had backup for IRB360 and restore it. Robotware only can be updated if some IRC5 hardware are updated too.

Regards.
