We recently completed routine maintenance for KR16 robot we have.
But the message is still there and stated "Next maintenance date: January 15, 2015 (Annual Maintenance)"
I've called KUKA hotline but they don't know.
If there anyone have a way to turn the service reminder off, sincerely appreciated.
Thanks

can't blame them.... they are trying to sell service.
Maintenance messages are displayed at scheduled intervals. To get rid of them add entry in the maintenance handbook. all of this should be documented in system integrator manual... here is a sample for KRC4.

Yes, for KRC4 it is simple as write something at maintenance log.
But, KRC2 it is different.
I believe I need to open some file in TXT editor and delete some lines but don't remember... -
Hello @edkorea,
did you find the way to permanently aknowledge that notification after the maintenance has been done?
Thank you

Reset Maintenance KR C2:
- Log on as Expert if needed
- Select Menu Monitor / Diagnosis / LTC
- You see the LTC (Life Time Counter) Login screen
- Enter User name > kuka and for the password type in the red displayed Session ID in reverse order. E.g. Session ID is 0986 type in the password as 6890
- navigate using Enter, Esc and Tab button
- navigate to Maintenance Log, press Enter
- in the List field e.g. Two-year maintenance, select up/down to the maintenance you did
- navigate with Tab to New maintenance, press enter
- your new entry will show in the list
- navigate to main menu button press enter
- navigate to Log out press enter
- last but not least press ESC
KUKA Hotline should know this!

KR C4 you can also change C:\KRC\Roboter\LOG\MaintenanceLog.xml as long as you are familiar with xml's
E.g.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<XmlLog xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<MaintenanceGroups>
<MaintenanceGroup Name="BasicInspection">
<MaintenanceLogs>
<MaintenanceLog IntervalInYears="1" Maintenance="BasicInspection">
<CurrentDate>2031-12-31T00:00:00-04:00</CurrentDate>
<UserName>Amazing guy</UserName>
<RunTimeInHours>11115</RunTimeInHours>
<OrderNumber>0815</OrderNumber>
<Comment>SIB safety relais checked, local and external E-Stop checked, fan on back of cabinet wiped clean, pressure in counterbalancer checked (within 5 bar tolerance), greased counterbalancer (both grease nipples)</Comment>
</MaintenanceLog>

I can not find LTC submenu in Diagnosis in my KSS 5.2
Does selecting that launch an external executable?
If so, is there a way to launch it? (Don't know if useful: i found LTCserver.exe in C:\KRC\BIN but it does nothing)
Thank you

I don't have time to check it now, but yes that should do it!!!
Here is the line out of MenueKeyKuka.ini, KSS5.6.9
mDiagnose =mpTrace, mpLogBook, mpCross, miStackLog, miInterrupt, miEscDiagnosis, miWebDiag, miSafeRobotDiagnosis
and
miWebDiag = LTC, 5000, HMI, BROWSER;http://Localhost/ltc/default.aspx;1

Thanks @Florida
but since also messing with the config gui in C:\INETPUB\WWWROOT\index.htm i wasn't able to solve,
i went ahead with the registry modification suggested here:

That solved
