How to check for time and date a program was edited?

General Application Help: How do I?

I would like to see the save data of a program with a teach pendant. We are trying to keep track of edits from the engineering department. We have the UR5e with the 5.12.3 software…

I just checked inside some installation and .urp files. The date/time isn’t stored there.

A couple options both using the robot’s SSH credentials:

  • can either browse the robot’s /programs folder with an SFTP utility like FileZilla. There will be a “Last modified” column showing the last edit date/time of the files.
  • SSH into the robot
    • ls -lrt /programs
    • This will give last edit date and time of the files in that folder.
    • if you need it to recurse into any subdirectories, use ls -lrtR

just yesterday I was trying to figure out when someone modified a program changing an output off.

it would be very helpful to have a view details option to the file browser on the pendant.
UR has a few UI elements missing that are common place on industrial robots, I hope they start to focus on those things
