You can connect to the internal dashboard server from within the robot program. This should allow you to close the popup. :slight_smile:
I made a quick example of closing a popup. Make sure the robot is in remote mode, if you’re using an e-series robot.

Thanks. It works well. and we use it without an extra Thread or event. We include it in the main program (we want to refresh a Popup so we close it befor open)

That’s good to hear. :slight_smile:

The reason I put it in the thread, is because the popup pauses the main program. But sounds like you’re using it different.

I open the Popup as a script and tourn off the setup to stopp the programm if the window open:

popup(str_cat(zaehler," Döner"),“Gefertigte Baugruppen”)

str_cat(zaehler," Döner") is the what shown in the window

“Gefertigte Baugruppen” is the Head of the popup

you could also consider just using textmsg() instead of popups.
It will put a message in the log, so you have a nice overview that shows what was finished at what time.
