Communication error

    Hello,

    I have a strange problem. I wanted to change the program, but after uploading the program, communication with the PLC and the computer ends.

    It seemed strange to me because I made changes to a working project. I started testing.

    1) Program 1 works when nothing changes
    2) After any change, it stops working. For example, I add a comment after switching on "start" on the PLC, communication stops. Even if I add a letter and remove it, there is a communication problem. (program size increases by about 6kb)
    3) When it changes only the program name, the program works
    4) A second robot is connected to the PLC. I changed the program there and never had this problem.
    5) The electrical connection works. The PLC has cables connected to the robot that cause movements to the given position. It works until error.
    6) When a communication error occurs, it terminates the connection with the computer. Teachpanedant stops working properly.
    7) I tried to upload .pg and .as extensions. It works the same.
    Robot has a free memory of 74%
    9) The sent data is sent only to plc and not between robots.

    What can I do?

    Robot ZX130U, E Controller

    Problem solved.

    The original file was probably in a different KIDE version. Saving something in KIDE had to change something. I don't know what When I changed the program in notepad, everything worked. Now I don't know how to change the program so that I can edit it in KIDE. Any ideas?

    No idea about KIDE sorry, but I do have a tip

    If it ain't broke there's nothing to change, so why load it in again.

    If it needs modifying, modify it and load in the modified data.

    Therefore, only modify and load in what you change, leave the rest alone.

    If you wanted to change the color of your shoelaces:

    1. Would you remove the old laces and add the new laces.

    2. Buy a new pair of shoes with the right colored laces.

    I changed nothing to the need for testing. Sometimes there are minimal changes, e.g. one line, I will not write the whole program again. Kide doesn't want to connect to the robot I have a problem with. But I'll see if uploading the changes in KTerm alone will help, thanks :smiling_face:

    I found differences between the programs.

    1)

    The original program that works:

    ...

    .END

    (Enter)

    .PROGRAM

    ...


    After saving to KIDE (does not work):

    ...

    .END

    .PROGRAM

    ...

    2) The original program that works:

    In AS Sourscode, autostart is at the beginning.

    After saving to KIDE (does not work):

    Autostartis at the end

    3) After saving to KIDE (does not work):

    Program create :

    ".PROGRAM Comment____() ; Comments for IDE. Do not use"

    These are the only things that change.

    What you've written in comparison to what you're experiencing, does not make any sense at all.

    If you've solved it then great, but personally I am non the wiser of what the problem is.

    KIDE may use a specific format which you can import from a text file, if not in the correct format, then it would probably be rejected...….I wouldn't know.

    You would be better contacting KRG (Kawasaki Germany) if you have issues with KIDE as they developed it as far as I'm aware.

    Stick with K-Roset and you can't go wrong, as this is the official software (as far as I know) that is fully supported throughout the global Kawasaki community.
