Software Updates

From Wiki

Here you can find updates for the CPRog robot programming environment and the corresponding documentation.

When using the standard installation directory the installation is done on top of the current program version. This will not delete user generated files (program files or the license) but will update the standard configuration files and doing this erase user changes. To prevent this rename the old installation e.g. to c:\CPRogold.

Version 09: For Mover and robolink arms

This version supports the following robots: Mover4, Lucas-Nuelle Mover4HD, Mover5, Mover6, SRA, igus_gantry, igus robolink. The correct project with your specific robot arm can be loaded using the 'open project' menu entry in the upper left circle.

The 'gripper' command since is used to operate the gripper as of V08. This allows the use of more complex grippers with servo-drives and several joints. The previous procedure using the digital outputs 11 and 12 is obsolete. Existing programs have to be adapted.

Documentation

Installation

Installation has to be done in C:\CPRog. CPRog requires a specific DirectX version and .net framework 3.5 or higher. If an old CPRog installation is updated no changes to Directx or .net Framework are necessary. If the installation is installed for the first time, the following dependencies have to be installed:

If you install CPRog from the CD supplied with your control electronics, DirectX9.0c and .net Framework are installed directly from the CD. If the installer starts without CD, it tries to download the dependencies from the internet. This requires a working internet connection.
