Writing to Position Karel Variable doesn't seem to work

[JTremblayAGT]

I have a variable in a Karel program of type: JOINTPOS in GROUP[1] to which I am trying to write to using Snpx.PositionSystemVariables.Write(string, JointsPosition) but the position remains uninitialized after a seemingly successful call.

Actually, I have already tested reading and writing Karel integer or string variables, and it works fine.

However, I have just noticed that it is impossible to read and write position variables. I just checked, and the server only returns 0s. I will check with Fanuc support to see what is going on.

Thanks for the quick reply, keep me posted!

It's funny since writing to position registers using the same types works just fine.

Hi, are there any updates on this issue?

[Rufus31415]

Fanuc support can't see what's happening, even in Modbus or OPC UA there seems to be the same phenomenon (I haven't tested it), they were supposed to pass the issue on to another team, I'll follow up with them and keep you posted.

For that, I think it's a mystery, no one can tell me. Do you have any updates on your side ?

We have simply stopped using that feature since it doesn't work.
