PLC Control

Intro

There seems to be several ways to call a robot program, but only one that I've managed to get working.

According to knowledgeable people the RPS method is technically not supposed to be used with AS language (supposedly just for function block programming) but its the only way I've managed to get working. 

Robot-Side Setup

There are some settings that need to be changed first:

1. Dedicate Inputs

NOTE: Signal Numbers need to be set according to the IO Map of the project. '0' will throw an error.

CYCLE_START
PROGRAM_RESET
Ext. prog. select (RPS)

1. Enable RPS

This should change to RPS ON. 

(It's not working for me here as I'm taking pictures on the simulator.)
