The workflow is to program everything with the virtual controller and sync it to the real one. The added benefit of using RobotStudio is that it provides a virtual(simulated) robot to work on.

FlexPendant is essentially a device with a screen and joystick where you can carry around and interact with the robot.Ģ) For the PC route, we can connect use the RobotStudio from ABB. After assembly and wiring up, we can start working on the configuration.ġ) For the standalone route, we can control the robot arm with FlexPendant. The configuration of the robot arm is pretty complex. Online resources are not as abundant as other robotics arm like Universal Robot. This time I will talk about my struggle to use the I/O unit on the ABB IRC5 Compact Controller.
