SearchL using an Analog Input

RobotStudio
1

Hello all,

I am working with ABB programming for the first time. I have successfully connected an analog input signal via device net.

What I’d like to accomplish is a linear move which stops when my analog input reaches a certain value (this value will need to be a variable).

I see that SearchL only accepts a Digital Input… What is the best way to achieve similar functionality using my Ain signal?

Thank you.

Hello James,
You may want to try to use the instruction ISignalAI to interrupt your movement. Use StopMove /Quick to stop the robot in your trap. Check the example in the Rapid manual for the ClearPath instruction.

hello

Yes ,you can use AI interupt to stop the robot,but the robot speed can’t be too high,or the robot will move a short distance to the desired positon.
