Creating customized notifications
You can create customized notifications by inserting MyUR notification nodes directly into the PolyScope program tree. When the program execution reaches the notification node, a message is generated and appears as one of the following:
-
A blocking pop-up on the dashboard
-
A dashboard log entry
-
A text message or email notification
To create customized notifications:
-
Navigate to Program > URCaps > myUR Notification.
-
Insert a notification program node at the desired location/s in your program tree.
-
Type the notification message to be sent when this event occurs.
Your message is evaluated as an expression, so place text strings in quotation marks.
You can use function calls and variables to generate your message.
-
Select a classification for the notification. You can choose to subscribe to notifications of attention and error types, as described in the table.
Notification class Function Example Log Logs an event in the log on the dashboard. You can track production efficiency. Attention Logs an event and sends it as a text or an email. You can notify operators of actions related to work cells. Error Logs an event and sends it as a text or an email. You can notify integrators of any unknown error or advanced error. -
Select Show pop-up if this event requires action/confirmation from an operator before program execution can continue. If selected, a notification becomes a blocking event that activates a pop-up on the monitoring dashboard and on PolyScope.
