Universal Robots Configuration

Before using Pick[+] with a Universal Robots system, it is necessary to enable Remote Control Mode in PolyScope. This allows the robot to execute commands sent by the Pick[+] software.

Enable Remote Control

Follow these steps to enable Remote Control Mode on the UR teach pendant:

  1. Open Settings on the UR teach pendant by pressing the button in the top right corner.
  2. Select System → Remote Control
  3. Click Enable to activate remote control mode.

Robot Network configuration

IP configuration

For the complete IP configuration workflow including Server PC, Robot, URCap, and Pick[+] software settings, see the IP Configuration guide.

To ensure proper communication between the Universal Robots system and the Pick[+] server, the robot's network settings must be correctly configured in PolyScope.

Follow these steps to set up the network connection:

  1. Open Settings on the UR teach pendant by pressing the button in the top right corner.
  2. Navigate to System → Network

  3. Configure network connection in UR Polyscope as follows:

    • IP Address: 200.200.2.2
    • Network Mask: 255.255.255.0
    • Gateway: 200.200.2.1 (Pick[+] server listens to robot on this IP)

  4. Click Apply to save the changes.

WARNING

If connection problem appears, verify that the Ethernet connection is properly configured on the UR controller.
- Go to Settings → Security → Services
- Enable ALL services.
- If the Ethernet is disabled, the robot will not receive commands from Pick[+], even if Remote Control Mode is enabled.

URCap IP Configuration

If you have changed the default IP of the Pick[+] Server, you must also configure it on the URCap configuration:

  1. In the UR Teach Pendant, access the Installation tab
  2. Go to URCaps and click Pick[+]
  3. Here you can change the Pick[+] Server IP
