Group i/o or i/o bitmap on UR10

Technical Questions
1

Using a UR10 on a project and was wondering if it was possible to set up group inputs and outputs or anyway to use the io as a bitmap?

Need to run up to nine variants from running program, with variant numbers coming from PLC.

Usually use group io or bitmaps for this, but can’t seem to find info in manual or online how to configure this.

Thanks in advance

There’s no built-in function for this what I know of. You can write your own script to do it, though.

But why don’t you look into MODBUS, EtherNet/IP or ProfiNet instead? :slight_smile: This will allow you to exchange much more information between PLC and robot.
