Hello everyone,

I am new to the community and to programming in general. I have a UR10 robot and the FTS300 in combination with 2F gripper of Robotiq.
I would like to run a test and connect the robot with the Labview to extract some data.
I want to get a high signal when I am touching the piece I am testing and also to get the time and the distance while I am doing the test.

I know that is really general informations,ut if you can explain to me how I can make the connection,I would be grateful.

Hi @agiakos and welcome to this community!

How are you setup to receive signals with Labview? What URCap version are you using with your gripper and FT Sensor?

Can you explain more what time and distance you are looking for in your application?

I am using the latest URcap version, I am planning to drive the robot arm with MoveL(steady speed) and push a joystick to find the neutral point. So my signals will be the position of the robot arm(How much I moved the joystick from the original position to the neutral position) and the output of a potentiometer that gives the neutral point. I just want to know 1)that I am connecting to labview trough the Ethernet cable and there are any settings I need to know? and 2) Through the digital outputs of the control box can I take the robot positions as output and feed it to the labview? 

i have the same problem i'm trying to communicate with a UR10 Robot using labview i still don't recieve strings from my robot can any one help me ? 

Hi Nicolas,
thank you for the help this is my attached labview code i did it with TCP/IP protocol.  the host will be the labview program running on a PC, but it could as well have been a Vision camera replying with the data cordinates for the object to send it to the UR10 so my first problem is the communication. 

Hi Mariem,

We unfortunately cannot help you with this. We do not have Labview License  and don't program with it. We primarily focus our developing and  integration on Cobots and their programming language.

Good luck,
Nicolas

Hi nicolas,
thank you very much but i think that you can help me to know how to communicate with my computer i mean if there's a code to use tcp/ip communication feature of the Universal Robots PolyScope user interface. you check my code also(my code is in frensh)

hi David, 
thank you the client wich is my UR is able to communicate with my server 

hi!
I’m trying to establish a data sending via a tcp / ip connection between a robot and a computer But what I notice is that the opening of the connection and the establishment of the first data exchange takes a relatively long time long (~ 10s). If you have done such an exchange, can you give me an idea about how long it takes to open the connection in your case and if there’s a command or a URscript make this communication faster?
