Hello @Albert,

Yes, I took the picture of the log after moving the gripper.

I followed the procedure as mentioned in the PDF. I extracted the file in the correct directory and followed all the steps, but still it didn't work. The manipulator arm moves fine but the gripper control has no effect on the real cobot.

Also, when I try Send program to Robot method nothing works even the manipulator arm doesn't work it only works by selecting "Run on Robot" directly. I have attached multiple photo and log data below for your reference. Please let me know if I can try anything else. Thank you.

Hello @Albert,

Is there any update on the process for connecting the gripper with RoboDK software.  Please let me know.

Thanks,
Midhun Ram

Taking a look at the RoboDK log I believe you didn't follow these steps:
  1. Download the following script file:
    https://robodk.com/files/upload/progrobodk-rq.zip
  2. Unzip the progrobodk.script file here:
    C:/RoboDK/bin/progrobodk.script
  3. Make sure to restart the driver if it was running (double click Disconnect, then, Connect).
  4. Select Tools-Options-Drivers
  5. Uncheck the option: Manage program calls with RoboDK when connected to a robot.

Dear Albert
The link to the progrobodk-rq.zip  file is dead. Could you please send it again ?
Thanks a lot.

I'm figuring out how to control the 2f-85 gripper from robod through a python script in run on robot mode. Until now I have been able to connect via ethernet and control the robot without any problem and also control the gripper with the teachpendant, when trying to control the gripper I searched the forum and found the PDF shared in the repply above. I followed the steps, downloaded the zip, put it in the correct folder, unchecked the robodk managed calls. But when I send the command( I use this line in python : robot.RunInstruction('rq_move_and_wait( 0 )',INSTRUCTION_CALL_PROGRAM) )and error message appear on the teachpendant "Unsupported list comparasion"     How can I make  the real gripper to move ?

I dont know if I have to modify something in this part, apart from just double clicking disconnect to reset drivers?

Hello, have you resolved your issue?
I seem to be encountering the same problem. I'm using the code robot.RunInstruction('RMACRO2', INSTRUCTION_CALL_PROGRAM), but it still doesn't work.
