Hi,
I wrote a program that sends data from my PC to the URScript via a TCP/IP socket. The URScript waits for incoming data, executes the corresponding moves based on that data, and then sends a “Ready” signal back to my program before waiting for the next set of data. My program waits for the “Ready” response and then sends the next data package.
In parallel, I use a second socket connection to query the dashboard approximately once per minute to check if a crash has occurred. Everything works smoothly in general. However, occasionally the dashboard does not respond, which results in an error. Apparently, the communication is disrupted, although I still receive a response when I ping the dashboard.
Are there any known conditions under which the dashboard stops responding to socket communication?
