First of all, great video. I have a doubt. In my work we have several fanuc robots. In a few of them I can't move the robot in T1 mode if the cabinet is open, so I have to enter in the cabinet and close The Door if I want to adjust some points. But in others I do not need to close myself into the cabinet to move the robot in manual mode. Do you know why is so? Thanks again for your work
Hi Jose, well locking yourself in the cell doesn't sound like the safest idea ;-) so I would work on this in the first place. The question would be how is the safety done on your side ? Is it controlled by PLC or just by electrical wiring to the safety relays ? If it's done trough PLC I would check if you are getting the right signals that allows you to operate. You should definitely study DCS I/O to fully understand it's functions and map the I/O correctly to ensure the safety of the cell.
Great video, just one question, are those two options Safe I/O Status and Safe I/O connect part of the DCS Advanced Option? I have a robot here with DCS but I don’t see those options under DCS and I think this DCS version is not the Advanced Option
Hello Sir, I have been working with welding fanuc robots, can you please explain how job requests and job release, same as zone requests and zone releases. You explanation and expertise would be highly appreciated

Great video! I did the profinet configuration with Siemens PLC and the normal DI/DO work good, but it seems that for Safety config which is 8 bytes only, cannot see I/O if they work properly and I need them for the cell closed, or E stop etc. Can you give me some directions what can I do, how to check them? On the plc shows that all connection is good, on robot have only this error SRVO 419. Thanks in advance
There are a few things to check: can you see the safety I/O card on the robot side, does the safety address ok, is the mapping ok, and do you have the correct gsdml file? I would start with those points, if you'd like to use remote support feel free to contact me: f-robotics.com/consultation
we have Fanuc R-2000id robot and it has SERVO-449 DCS DOMON alarm (SFDO18).I checked the safety board and flashing red so is that means replace the safety board? could not find anything teach pendent. any sugestion?
I would like to use an unused safety input in my program to initiate a backward exit command if the robot stops. How do I configure the hardware and software to accomplish this?
Hi, How can map Safety Signals (DCS) to Digital Signals by using RACK 36? It is really necessary for working with the project in Roboguide without Safety Signal thanks a lot Al Sly
Check out my I/O mapping video. ua-cam.com/video/g_zJ_W2ANsY/v-deo.html You would need to look into a DCS manual in order to figure out exact numbers (start) of the I/O
Is possible to use I/O from menu ([DI], [DO], [F], etc.) in DCS? For example, IF F[5]= ON then turn off DCS. If is possible can u show how to do it? Thanks a lot.
You cannot turn OFF or ON DCS signals using regular I/O, it has to be a Safe I/O (of course there is a way around it, but that has to be done on PLC side), however you CAN turn F[x] or DO[x] based on DCS signal, so you can make a connection eg. DO[x]=CPC[x] or F[x]=CPC[x]. You need to use DCS mapping (on the I/O Config) to assign DCS signals to regular outputs and than map this output to a Flag or other DO using Background Logic. That might sound confusing, but that's the way :-)
@@FutureRoboticsChannel @Future Robotics I asked cause when my robot is close to cleanning station, DCS signal appears but in the torch cleanning program, when the one DO[x]=ON, robot can move to clean station without DCS errors. I checked BG LOGIC and have no found this DO[x], so it has to be done by PLC as u said. Thanks for answer!
You cannot send DI to Safety Signals (well you can, but if you want to do it contact me directly). You can map Safety Signals (DCS) to Digital Signals by using RACK 36
is there an easy way to simulate safety IO signals in roboguide? after loading a cell in to the program i am getting DCS SSO servo disconnect fault because roboguide is not getting the safety input. was wondering if there was an easy way around this or if there is another video that might talk about this . Thank you
The question would be if you have the DCS option bought and installed ? If so, maybe you are using Quick Menus if not you can try to set variable $DCS_CFG/$DISP_menu to 1

I'm not sure, that might be the case, FANUC DCS is a customizable option, so it's very likely that you might not have some options installed

yes, if you have a bypass signal mapped to the safety signals, than you just bypass the DCS and all signals will be bypassed automatically.
CIP, whici is present in CSO and CSI, what does it mean?
CIP Safety - short for “Common Industrial Protocol”
How to enable DCS option. I am not able to find DCS option in my teach pendant
The question would be if you have the DCS option bought and installed ?
If so, maybe you are using Quick Menus if not you can try to set variable $DCS_CFG/$DISP_menu to 1
Where can I find the meaning for CSO, CSI, SSI and SSO? I tried to find it but I couldn’t 😞
CSO - CIP Safety Output
CSI - CIP Safety Input
SSI - Safe System Input
SSO - Safe System Output
You can find all in Dual Check Safety Function Operator's Manual.
eg. MAROCDCHK03101
@@FutureRoboticsChannel thanks! 🙏🏼
Hi, sorry to disturb again. Where I can find CSI and CSO signal on the Robot?
It's on the video at 11:45, you can see CSI/CSO signals (that's Safe I/O Status menu)
Sorry, in my system in DCS menu i just have 15 to 18 and i dont have 1 to 14, how can i get them in DCS menu
Most likely your robot does not have all DCS options
I am using a back up in Roboguide from a real robot. But whenever I try to run it, I get the DSC SSO errors (fence open and NTED). how do i disable these outputs so i can run the robot?
Don't know how they are setup, there are 2 things you can do:
1. Try to enable bypass
2. just delete those signals from DCS I/O configuration
@@FutureRoboticsChannel How do I disable the DCS I/Os? When I follow the steps in your video, i dont get the option of turning them off. Else how do I bypass enable the bypass?
