Below you will find links to the current versions of the robot control software.
- CPRog: Robot control and programming software (V12/V13)
- igus Robot Control (iRC): Functionally equal to CPRog but with an igus specific selection of robots
- TinyCtrl/RobotControl: The robot control software that runs on the embedded computer. It is controlled via CPRog, iRC or its interfaces.
Caution! After a software update test your robot programs for compatibility and motion deviations first with small velocites!
Downloads
Both CPRog and iRC are available as a standalone installer for Windows and bundled with the TinyCtrl/RobotControl updater.
igus Robot Control
For igus robots.
Other Versions: Release History
Latest changes:
Apps
Add-on Apps for the iRC.
CPRog
For Commonplace Robotics robots (e.g. Mover) and mobile platforms.
Documentation
We are currently updating the CPRog documentation, until then please use the documentation for the iRC igus Robot Control. The functionality is identical.
You can find the user guide for your robot here: Documentation.
Installation
When using the standard installation directory, the installation of the update is done on top of the current program version. This will not delete user generated files (program files or the license). However, it will update the standard configuration files and erase user changes made to those files. To prevent this rename the old installation e.g. to c:\iRC-igusRobotControl-V14_old prior to running the installer. Since V15 the user configuration will be saved at %AppData%\RobotControl and not be automatically overwritten after an update.
You can copy your changed configurations over from the Data\Programs, Data\Projects, Data\Robots and Data\Tools directories inside the installation directory.
Backward Compatibility
Hardware: The current software version is compatible to all igus robots delivered in 2022 and later.
Software: The PC software (iRC) and embedded control software (RobotControl) must be on the same version.
Robot Programs: The robot programs are only fully compatible to the same major software version. Programs created with older Software versions may be compatible, but need to be converted via the program editor first. Configuration changes may cause different behavior so after an update please test the program with a low velocity override.
Interfaces: Please see the according interface documentation.
If there are any incompatibilites please get to us, we can solve the problem!
