I've been looking for a robot with a KRC2 system recently as my first robot system, but am finding that I can't find any that are within my budget. I have located some KR150s that come with KRC1 controllers, but those controllers just don't seem worth the trouble. However, I might be able to get one of these KR150 robots and buy a used KRC2 system elsewhere within my budget.
What is involved in connecting a robot (probably either a KR150 or KR200) to a KRC2 system? Is this work within the reach of a first-time owner, who has experience with electronics and IT in general, or would a highly experienced KUKA specialist need to be brought on-site?
I imagine there is some some software configuration involved, but I am also curious about the wiring. Are the cables generally "universal", or do we need custom work to be done to make all the connections necessary?
