network card

hi to all,

Good day. has anyone have and idea to use the 2nd pci slot for the network card? i mean configure it.
currently we think that the 1st slot is damage cause led of lan port is not blinking or turning on. but when we tried to put it on the 2nd slot it blinking and 4 led are on.
we have a krc4 controller. the mother board is FUJITSU D3076-K1 V4.6.4.0 R1.11.0 for D3076-K1x

thanks and regards,
EMBEN

there are different variants of NIC and motherboard but you have paired them correctly.
as far as i know NIC has to be in slot closest to CPU.

hi panic,
yes that 1 is installed on the slot near to the cpu. but now the slot got problem or its not working. so we want to use the 2nd slot next to it.
but its not configured. maybe there is something inside the robot that we need to change to make it work on the 2nd slot?
1st slot problem: LED on the LAN port are dead. it cannot connect to X44, x42 and x48.
2nd slot: LED are turned on(working) but, not configured. maybe. it cannot connect to X44, x42 and x48.

Thanks panic.

Are you trying to use this network card from the robot, or from Windows?

I don think on a krc 4 you can change the slot that easy but i could be wrong

As what i have had a try in the 8.3 controller years ago , it's possible to insert another network card ( Intel pro 1000) ,but you have to install the network driver . You can have a try.

someone with ir & hot air solder station & solder pot with experience can change the pci port.

I don't think that is "burned" just does not make good contact.

Maybe the plastics have "expanded" and the card does not make good contact.

Try to reaseat it or move it a little.

Look here how is done with solder pot

What, exactly, are you trying to do? And with what model controller, running what version of KSS?

If you're trying to use a C++ application you downloaded from KUKA's web site, that implies you are using the RSI or EKI Tech Package.

If you're talking about writing your own C++ application, and executing it on the Windows side of the KRC's brain, that's entirely possible. But connecting from the Windows side of the KRC to the KSS/VxWorks side is harder, mostly because KUKA does not release information on that interface. OpenShowVar and/or JOpenShowVar are the only "open" packages I'm aware of, offhand, that bridge this gap.
