Hello,

There are additional internal settings beyond just the MotoPlus Option Function. But given the use of MotoSight on your controller, it is very likely that these are already configured. There are two settings which I am unsure about since there are multiple editions of the MotoSight product.

So, I would encourage you to try loading the MotoROS.out file according to the tutorial on the wiki. (Skip the MOTOMAN DRIVER sentence.) If there are any internal settings configured improperly, then you will get an alarm 8003 [xxx] at startup. If the xxx is a value of 100 - 111, then you must contact your local Yaskawa Motoman office and request the FS3.30.00-00 upgrade. If it is a value of 1 - 8, then you can easily resolve these settings yourself by following the steps listed here. http://wiki.ros.org/motoman_driver/Troubleshooting

Please note that we are currently debugging another possible issue with the latest version of FS100 software and MotoROS. If you get an alarm that says, "Cannot save parameter file", then please reply to this message thread and I will notify you as soon as we have a resolution for this issue.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
