Hello, I need some help about the connector X12.
I'm working in a laboratory and it's the first time I'm working on a Kuka Robot.
I have a KR 3 R540 with KRC4 Compact.
KSS : V8.3.29
WorkVisual 4.0
I'm trying to get a signal from the connector X12. I don't want to connect it at a Beckoff device... For the moment, I'm just measuring the voltage from one of the output with a multimeter (I only need one output), but there is nothing... I have read all the topics here about I/O, it was very helpful but it didn't solve my problem.
About the physical part:
See the attached photo of the connector X12: connector-X12.JPG
As you can see, I only set up 2 pins:
- The orange wire is connect to the pin 17, which is the output n°17 (according to the manual "optional interfaces" in french version)
- The grey wire is connect to the pin 33, which is the ground.
For the supply, I use connector X55 with two jumpers : Pin 5 to 7, pin 6 to 8
My first question is : do I have to connect all the pins to the connector ?
In the manual, it's written that the pin 50 is for extern supply, but as I'm using X55 with jumpers, I don't have to use extern supply, is it ?

In the "optional interface" manual, the connector X12 is named "Interfaces E/S numériques X12 IOB", so I add "Input OutputBoard 16 -16B (IOb-16-16B)" in DTM Collection to my Kuka Extension Bus.
Next, I mapped all the inputs and ouputs. I don't know if I'm right, please, tell me if I did mistakes...
Code Error
When I deploy the WOV project into the controller, I have the following error:"KSS02858: Ackn. Stop due to field bus error."
