Simulated I/O signals The default the size of simulated (previously called virtual) I/O signals is set to 23 signals in RW6. It will still be possible to load an old module from 5. For 32 bits wide signals the DNUM arguments in the RAPID instructions must be used otherwise can faulty values be assigned to the signal. The same rule applies to the case where the signal had an explicit default value that differs from the groups implicit or explicit default value. The recommendation is however to migrate any custom code in the old user modules into the new modules to avoid problems.ABB Robotics PRU Title Ref SEROP Release Notes RW 6.00 overlapping groups and signals cannot have differing default values.00.

No connection to IPS object while starting up (PDD4331) For RW6. The problem sometimes occurred after editing procedure calls with 0 or 1 parameters. added 30 second delay in startup when using ICI to compensate for earlier I/O synchronization timeout that was 30 seconds in RW5 (now 0 in RW6). This is needed to make sure ICI nodes have time to get online in EIO during startup.01.The system output Motion Supervision Triggered will be reset after leaving the motion error handler. e.g. telephone Anders Trillkott. For example. In this case the option will work if either of the options in the list are also selected for installation.The problem that the Motion Error Handler with errno ERR_COLL_STOP only triggers once in a procedure.01. e. all these options are mandatory and should go into the AND dependency list. the branch has will not be expanded however the English language will be selected as default language.00.0 the TorchClean instructions were not working correctly. or of type OR dependency. +46 21 344863 Information / Corrections RW 6.00.00.g.01 RP6. the same to be defined in the product manifest. the signal will only be set a short while executing in the error handler.
