I have an issue with bar change, say I have parts to make as 21 then supposed to remove slug and put in a new bar, it randomly goes pat that count and doesn’t change bar, it’s not all the time just sometimes, is it to do with pallet-1_cnt, Should that stay on 1 or 0 and should that variable be added in the installation variable page?
Seeing some of your program would probably help. I would make it an installation variable and increment it in the program. Making it an installation variable ensures that between runs the value doesn’t reset if it isn’t supposed to. Likewise, you will need to include some method to manually reset the value in the case that the operator removed an unfinished bar due to defect. That can be just editing the installation page, or a series of popups at the beginning of the program to prompt the operator.
Thanks, will post some of the prog when I’m in work, it does increment it in the program (count +1) and I’ve now added it in the installation variable also (pallet_1_cnt)
Added that variable in the installation and still went past the count
