How to open Karel file(.PC)

How can I open the Karel (.PC) file or by which tool can I edit the PC file?

FDABB,

I've never seen or heard of a "de-translator" for FANUC, KAREL .PC files.

A .PC file is loaded on the controller and executed.

KAREL files with a .KL file type (extension, if you will) are simply text files that can be viewed and modified by a simple text editor program on a PC (some older robot controllers had a CRT and keyboard that could be used to enter and translate KAREL programs). Nowadays, you write your source code (which has a specific syntax, which looks a lot like Pascal) with the .KL file type on a PC and then translate it to generate an executalble (psuedo code) file which has a .PC file type.

The translator programs -- there are many, mostly dependening on the robot controller's software version -- are available from your gratious FANUC sales representative.

P - code files are compiled controller file and I've never heard anything about possibility to check code if You do not have editable *.kl file.

Thanks a lot gents!

Cause there is something wrong in the PC file which cause the program running out of time.  Where can I find the programming manual for .KL file? Or could you send me some docu if you have. Appreciate!

Use notepad for example to edit *.kl, or ultraedit for example with tmeplate file for karel. There is a lot of possibilities  
If You want to learn karel programming then You need karel reference guide docu.

Thank you joker and anonymous

Do you have the translator programs(from kl to pc) for R-J3iC  V7.20 or where I can download probably.

No copyrighted software on forum...If You know what I mean

Joker is right, we can't give you the software over this forum because the software is copyrighted. Recently Fanuc also lost the plot and said we can't even exchange manuals over this forum, so we can't even give you the manual.

However we can at least tell you the software you will need to compile a *.kl file to *.pc. It's called "WinOLPC", you can no doubt buy it from your Local Fanuc rep...

For V7.20, you will need OLPCPro, which is a ROBOGUIDE variant.  You should be able to download the trial version and at least have 30 days to use it.

Does notepad or ultraedit allow read only? If changes are made to the .kl file will it need to be re-compiled with OLPC program before it can be re-loaded to controller?

Yes it has to be recomplied.
