Debugging Remote Ethernet Control
Program debug from Epson RC+ 8.0 development environment is capable as follows.
- Create a program in the same manner as usual.
- Open the Run window and click the [Enable Remote ETH] button.
- When you only acquire values using the Remote Ethernet control, the [Enable Remote ETH] button is not displayed. Click the
button of the device specified as the control device. - Now the remote commands will be accepted.
Breakpoint setting and output to the Run window is available.
KEY POINTS
- If not Login within 5 minutes from external equipment, the connection will be cut down automatically. After Login, if no command is sent within the timeout duration of the remote Ethernet, connection will be cut down. In this case, establish the connection again.
- If error occurs, execute the Reset command to clear the error condition before executing the operation command. To clear the error condition from external equipment by monitoring, use the "GetStatus" and "Reset" command.
CAUTION
If you set "0" in the [Timeout] box, time out duration is infinite. In this case, the task continues to execute even without the communication from client. This means the robot may keep moving and cause unexpected damage. Ensure the ways other than the communication to stop the task.
