Understood, makes sense. My projects range from 2-8 controllers generally, and occasionally the controllers can have multiple arms. -------------------------------------------

Laptops In Use?

Hello everyone, when I first started using E3D for work my laptop was not capable of running everything, and the USB ports were not fast enough to connect to the PLC and keep the robots and E3D devices connected reliably. It seems now everybody I talk to or see is using a laptop, so I'm curious if it's ...

Error Guide

Is there somewhere I can find an "error guide" that will tell me what an error code means and the common causes, to help with troubleshooting? For reference to the issue I'm searching for: I'm attempting to save some built panels to a catalog, and I'm receiving an error CS0539. It gives me a folder ...

Is anybody having problems using the "Create Outputs" function in the wiring diagram on E3D 2026 Using WiringFramework 3.4.2. Curious if anybody ran into this problem and had a simple fix before putting in a support ticket. -------------------------------------------

I see, so with AB Logix Echo when you connect to the PLC and it talks to all the devices mapped to the PLC (not showing anything mapped to like an EN2T or other ethernet card) it's similar to PLC SIM, but to overcome this, do you make an individual connection to all the other Profinet cards and devices ...

Friedrich, This is ultimately for a German customer. I can connect the Siemens CPU to the PLC SIM but none of the Profinet devices. Even connecting the CPU to PLC SIM, I'm only able to see two of the tags in the E3D IO Browser. -------------------------------------------

A customer that utilizes Siemens PLCs is asking for a digital twin, and I'm wholly inexperienced with Siemens. I installed PLC SIM Advanced and was able to put a PLC program online utilizing PLC SIM, and then I was able to connect to a new E3D project. On a "normal" E3D project using Studio5000 and ...

RE: E3D Robot Fieldbus Connections

Very interesting, this helps me have a newer way to track robot movements too vs utilizing the PLC. One question I have is after I set all of this up, when I go to wire in connections to a block, the tags that I'm able to pull from the connected robot (Robot IO tags) only allow wiring out, not wiring ...

Has anybody successfully set up a fieldbus connection on a FANUC robot in an E3D cell to pass data directly to the robot's IO? -------------------------------------------

Thanks for the explanation, Mark. Unfortunately I'm having to still go in and manually toggle wiring to get the intended result and with the latest update, I'm not getting that option. I went to the properties and selected to fix the widget and I got a message saying "no widgets need fixing." ------ ...

I tried resetting the view for the wiring diagram, the scene, and closing then reopening the cell, and unfortunately none of that worked. I ended up wiring NC1 in RC_ESopt to ESTOP CH1 and NC2 in the Pendant EStop to ESTOP CH2, since they both will be on or off at the same time, so I'll probably circle ...

Has anybody else had this issue where the BooleanAnd function won't work? A temporary solution I found is to put another BooleanAnd within the surface BooleanAnd, but if I restart the cell then the sub BooleanAnd won't work which just creates a chain... I'm currently up to date with WiringFramework ...

Disregard, I had "EIP" selected as well, which made it not work. Unfortunately, the modules I'm having issues with are already in the scene, so I'll have to figure out a different workaround. Thanks! -------------------------------------------

Thanks for the resources. That's what I was doing, but I don't get the option to load visuals. Even if I select all in my IO browser under the EIP, there's no option. This project is only using Allen Bradley modules and I have the module emulators catalog. Here's a screenshot of what I'm able to see: ...

Hey all, currently trying to remember (forgot to write it down) how to import Allen Bradley module emulators from being connected to a PLC via the IO Browser. I know there's a way where it'll make a nice clean little rack with the correct modules in it and wiring for you to make the connections in the ...

Happy New Year! I did end up getting this resolved with some internal help. With FANUC PaintPRO, it has to be done in version 10 to work. In v10, if you go to Cell > Advanced External Device Connection, you can set the IP address of each robot. You then select "Enable IO" and that should allow you ...

I'm unsure if there's a newer way to do it, but if your cell has CIP safety you'll have to spoof it since currently FANUC ROBOGUIDE doesn't support CIP safety. Regardless, the way I've been doing it over the last few years is to create an emulation subroutine and create a timer and a MSG to get the ...
