I have three FX3n in a weld cell that uses a Proface HMI to change jobs. The cushion cell D417 is the register that the HMI writes to so that it can message three robots and two spanners D402 and D403. In the spanner plc's it changes to bits M306 through M310. I can't remember how it converts and writes to those bits. I have looked at the batch monitor to see if when I change the job number to the new job I am adding (12) if it changes the word but I can't see it happening. Any help would be appreciated in helping me move this project along.

Hi Craig

MOV D417 D402
D402 = Side A current job
MOV D417 D403
D403 = Side B current job

Next we have the following
Jig A Robot side
MOV D402 K2M2440
MOV D402 K2M2540

Jig B Robot side
MOV D403 K2M2440
MOV D403 K2M2540

Byte M2440 & M2540 look to be CC link addresses each to a Robot?

Here they are moving 16bit D registers to 8bit M register
i.e
K1 - first 4 bits of Address
K2 - First 8 bits of Address
K3 - First 12 bits of Address
K4 - First 16 bits of Address

Usually(not always) Robots recieve a program Number.

so if you create an Entry Data Monitor then add
K2M2440,K2M2540 see what you get.

The comments could be better described
Job 1 - JobBit1
Job 2 - JobBit2
Job 3 - JobBit4
Job 4 - JobBit8
Job 5 - Etc

Ill have a further look later when i have more time

Hope this helps
