Using a message from the UR5 Pendant to pause the programme about robots HOT 2 CLOSED

@vsardenberg this is easily possible with the Robots-Plugin
For UR-robots you can add a Custom Command with a popup command that blocks the robot until you press continue on the pendant.
Check the UR-script reference under "popup" (page 35) for more information.

This is how you add it in grasshopper using this plug-in:

This should be what you are looking for.
Alternatively you could also use a wait for Digital Input with a button wired to the robot:

• add the waitDI after the desired move in Grasshopper
• when the robot reaches this point it will stop and wait until the button connected to the digital input is activated

Hello Victor,

Disclaimer - I don't work with the Robots team, but I have been experimenting with the plugin for a few weeks.

There's a Wait DI command that comes with the plugin, that seems to have some of the functionality you're looking for. You could set up the program to do a Pulse DO, to tell your pendant it's reached that point in the program, then Wait DI. The message box would awaken with the Pulse DO, and then, on continue, send a digital out back to the UR controller which triggers the Wait DI.

That should do what you're asking for, although I don't know if you know how to interface your pendant's message box with digital in and out signals. If not, this might not be what you're looking for.
