ES Signals Interconnection

Avatar

Hello everyone,

I was wondering to send a "do signal" for an alarm which would stop the motion of robot. I am looking for an interconnection and I would like to know the basic purpose and description of the ES Signals. 

  • The 5th number in put is ROT that I found is for the rotation control and is not the specific info that I am needing.
  • The 9th number input is for BELTBREAK and is also not very useful for me.
  • The 11th number input is for SVON and is only meant for making SERVO motor ON i guess.
  • The 13th number input is BRKHLD and is for applying brakes i guess.
  • The 15th number input is SRVDSCNCT and is for disconnecting the SERVO cable i guess.

Guide me please.

Didn't find what you were looking for?

    Dear Frankie!

    As far as I think ROT is the robot's over travelling.

    SRVDSCNT is for the indication that SERVO motor is disconnected in OFF position.

    Good Luck

    So , DO signal is really great feature that can be used for many purposes.  As you mentioned you want to stop the motion of the robot when specific alarm occurs. 

    You can set to no. 15 - User Alarm , If any user alarm occurs you can stop the motion of the robot. 

    Or if you have any external sensor connected to PLC . You can set it IMSTP. 

    You can use $MCR_GRP[1].$HOLD  in your BG logic. 

    Also you can use SKIP and LBL condition for your BG logic.
