Hello,
In my application a sensor check if the item is good.
in case th eitem is not good The robot goes in safepos and release the item than it stops.
which is the correct way to communicate to PM that the robot is stopped?
I used the safepos routine, but the robot stops, but in PM it is still in running mode.

Hi,
As far as I know there is no support in Rapid to stop a specific robot.
What is the reason for wanting to the robot to go to stopped state every time there is a faulty product?
If you really need this function you could probably use RIS from Rapid, although it would require some work. You would have to set up a Rapid “socket” that communicates with the RIS TCP/IP-plugin, and use this to call “stop robot”.

We have a sensor that check if the robot loose a piece.
If the robot loose a piece (it is a 3kg piece) we need to stop the robot and the operator has to go inthere and remove the piece.
We need that PM recognize the robot stops so the RIS on the plc can open teh cell door.
Hi Oscar
I suggest you basically just make an “ErrWrite;” and a “Stop;”
It will put the robot in Pause state in PM.

Hi Mats, if I remember that was my first choise, but then th e robot went in stop state in PM,
but for restart it it was necessary to push start 2 times:
push start, the robot starts and stops immidiatly
push start again, the robot starts and run
