Adressing Variables in KRL

[Shadow]

Hello forum, so i managed to get the distance sensor value printed from a script in the robot, as i tought that would be the first step…
Now i would like to transfer this value to the robot code for use inside KRL of the robot.
Can someone help me how i would do this?

Hi,

As far as I know there is no option to directly connect Python code with the KRL code.

A possible workaround is to convert the variable in Python to a binary value and send this value via IO signals to the robot. Then convert the IO signals through a signal declaration in KRL back to an integer.

Here is an example

How to read global variables from robot program

Hi, As of right now there is no direct way to access KRL variables with Python and vice versa. The only option right now is to convert the variable to IO signals via KRL and decode those signals in your Python code by reading the IO values. Here are two examples that utilize this: Robot sends value via IO to other robot: Send_Value_Robot_To_Robot.vcmx (4.5 MB) Conveyor reads height of parts, sends the height via IO signals to robot, robot adapts pick height: 16bit_Real_Signal_Sensor_Exampl…
