Support / Re: Calibrating KP1-V500 with KUKA|prc

Hello,

Can you please send me the file and label/internalise the different options as they are on your PC?

Then I can check for differences! It also doesn't hurt to use the Recompute function, just to see if that makes a difference!

Best,
Johannes

Hi Johannes,

Thank you for replying on your holiday! No rush needed with the replies.

So if you see the YouTube link below I don't think the reversed direction is working consistently? Angel came up with the solution to use the flipped surface which worked on both our computers at some point, but now I try and do the exact same process and it doesn't reverse?

Support / mxA， The $PRO_ACT singnal of the Automatic External interface is not active

« Last post by machens on May 23, 2022, 02:00:23 PM »

There is a problem when using mxA. If there is no operation or command after one or two minutes, update the new command will not take effect until RESET mxA. The error message shows "The $PRO_ACT singnal of the Automatic External interface is not active" as the below screenshot. Is there any solution? Thanks.

Hello Alex,

Sorry for the late reply, I'm on holiday and therefore not as quick as usual.
Reversing the rotation axis of the turntable should flip the rotation direction as well - see the attached example!
Otherwise the approach would be to look into the machine data file, but let's keep that option for later.

Best,
Johannes

Support / Re: WAIT INPUT

« Last post by Johannes @ Robots in Architecture on May 20, 2022, 08:22:16 PM »

Hello,

Without an example file that is hard to trouble-shoot, but I guess that you used the "Merge" command to put the series of commands together?
Now movement commands have often gone through a series of operations that introduces additional data structure, while Wait commands consist of just a single component and its output.
If you put the data into a panel, it shows you the branch name on top, e.g. "{0;0}". A wait command may just have {0} and would therefore be put first.
The "Simplify" and "Flatten" options could help, either use them as a separate component or by right-clicking an input - for example by enabling "flatten" for all inputs of the Merge component.

Please note that this is a GH thing and not directly related to KUKA|prc.

Hope that helps - if not please attach a simple example to illustrate your problem!

Best,
Johannes

Support / WAIT INPUT

« Last post by alvarogarciasab on May 20, 2022, 02:01:58 PM »

I am using merge to put some order between several commands.
I just want to add some wait commands in between. The result is that the wait command always goes up to the top of the list, being the first thing to execute by the robot.
I have jest confirmed that I am running with the last PRC version.

Is there someone experimenting the same issue?

Thanks in advanced,

Just sending the files because I still haven't managed to figure anything out!

Yes, staying at the current position would be good. It's possible that the turntables are going in different directions, but how do I swap this? If I flip the turntable on the robot then the coordinate system would have Z in the wrong direction and the robot would try and reach underneath the turntable, and I can't seem to find a way to flip it in PRC? I tried flipping the axis on the custom turntable block, but that didn't change anything.

Best,
Alex

From the XYZABC it looks like you would like the tool to more or less stay at the current position, right?
So if A moves by 8 degrees, then E1 does the negative -8 movement.
Is it possible that the real and simulated turntable turn in different directions? So instead of -8 + 8 = 0 you get 16?

Best,
Johannes
