I’m attempting to run my simulation of a robot (Fanuc, in this case) which keeps halting with an Executor error: ProgramName PositionName: position is out of reach of the robot.
The problem is, the program named in the error no longer exists. I deleted it some time ago. Also, no point with that point name exists in any of my remaining programs. I created these programs by jogging the robot and recording points.
The error triggers when one of my existing programs hits a Delay command.
I’ve checked each point in the programs active in my simulation by Jogging the robot to each one, and none of them are out of the robot’s reach.
I tried creating a new program with the same name as the one appearing in the error message, hoping that might clear out any lingering cruft in the memory, but that didn’t help. Likewise creating a new point (in the center of the robot’s reach) with the name that appears in the error message.
I’ve restarted VC several times, with no luck.
…nevermind. I had a second robot, whose visibility had been turned off, that was generating the error. I’d literally forgotten it existed, and so didn’t pay attention to the robot name in the error message.
Well, hopefully I won’t make that mistake again…
