Popup messages send via Script from a PC.
The UR script manual mention this syntax.
But as “ (apostrophe) is a protected character in Python – then it is neseccary to insert in \ from of “ in order to actually send the “ when using Python.
Python program running on PC.
# Echo client program
import socket
import time
HOST = “192.168.0.9″ # The remote host
PORT = 30002 # The same port as used by the server
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect((HOST, PORT))
s.send (“set_digital_out(2,True)” + “\n”)
time.sleep (1)
s.send (“popup(\”Messages\”, title=\”The Headline in the Blue box\”, blocking=True)” + “\n”)
time.sleep (1)
s.send (“set_digital_out(2,False)” + “\n”)
time.sleep (1)
data = s.recv(1024)
print “Good bye!”
Provides this result on the Robot.

Hi,
I’m running two programs in parallel,
1. Read full state message from 30001
2. Send a small program:
textmsg(“starting”)
textmsg(“ending”)
via port 30003.
I can see the “ending” on the screen, but I never get “ROBOT_MESSAGE” package in the first program.
(I get cartezian info, robot_mode_data and other packages)
Why is that?
Thanks.
Hi tali
Thanks for the question.
If you only run the first program to read from port 30001 – do you then get the message ?

Hi,
Although I fixed my mistake, I still don’t see all the debug messages I sent.
I sent the program:
$ 1 “messaging starting”
textmsg(“starting)
$ 2 “messaging ending”
textmsg(“ending”)
In polyscope I see
Program textmsg started
ending
Program textmsg stopped
In my program I sometimes get the same, sometimes only “ending”
If I remove the textmsgs from the program, , then I get the label messages.
Is there a way to use the lables or the textmsgs in order to debug a program? It seems that only part of the debug messages are sent by the controller.
Found my mistake, I was trying to read it from state message
Hi Lars,
Thanks for your valuable suggestions,here in the below program i am getting the following error in this line Receive_Data = socket_read_ascii_float(6) and the error is function did not find a solution.
Init Variable
Robot Program
Move_To_Pos = Move_To_Pos
Receive_Data = Receive_Data
Point = Point
socket_open(“192.169.100.101″, 30000)
socket_send _string(“UR10″)
wait:2.0
Receive_Data = socket_read_ascii_float(6)
wait:3.0
Loop 6 times
Move_To_Pos[Point] = Receive_Data[Point]
Point = Point+1
movej(Move_To_Pos)
Thanks in Advance
Regards

Hi Ganesh
There are two things that come to my mind.
1.
Are the format of the data you are sending from the host as six floats ?
2.
I assume you are trying to send cartisian cordinates as data for the robot to move. If the current position and the data for the next position involves a move the robot cannot do or if the data is an invalid pose then the robot cannot move. You can verify if the data is valid by inserting them to the pose editor in the GUI and see if the robot can move there. Also if the positions are far away from each other then you can considder to have more positions in between.

Thank you for the response. Using the assignment works the only problem is a user can still cancel the program operation if they are not paying attention but I guess that is just something that will have to be dealt with if it happens.
Thanks,
Jake
I was wondering if there is a way to create a third button on the popup to do a task other than continue or stop program?
Thanks
Hi Jake
Thanks for your question.
You might consider to use the ”Assignment” of variable and choose ”Operator” input and then make the logic in your program react to the user input.

Lars
