FANUC Simulate I/O, Comment Code

Jan 19, 2023

Senior District Sales Manager

Adam's guide covers the essential FANUC programming technique of Simulating I/O, perfect for debugging robot code when physical components are absent during startup. He demonstrates forcing inputs and outputs in a program with imaginary vacuum control, clarifying that inputs must be set to "simulate" to be forced, while simulated outputs won't activate physical devices. Recognizing the production risks, Adam shares vital safety protocols: enabling a Production Check alarm to block automatic operation with simulation active, and mapping a safety output for team alerts. As a final tip, he shows how to use the 'Remark' feature to easily comment out I/O lines for clean dry runs.
