We want to integrate a Kuka KRC2 in our safety system.
We are providing relais contacts for the signals for Exteral E-stop and for the Safeguard channel.
We will bring the Local Estop from the KCP to our safety controller.
I suppose this may work this way?
I also suppose the contacts of the 'local Estop' only open when the emergency stop button on the KCP is pushed?
We also would like to the contacts of the local Estop to be closed (no Estop) if the Estop is not pushed and the powerswitch of the Kuka cabinet of off.
I suppose connecting external 24V to X11.88 and 0V to X11.89 will accomplish this?

1) The ext 24V is just an option for user to use internal 24V or external depending on field safety architecture & safety standards.
2) When controller is off there will be no feedback from contacts, so typically you will get E-stop from Local E-stop of Cabinet since controller is off.
3) You can try giving ext 24V[within the limited current range] to Local E-Stop of Robot to ensure what you are trying to.
