KukaSim and OfficeLite

    Hi!

    I am having some trouble moving the robot from OfficeLite in KukaSim.

    I have created a new project in KukaSim with a "Kuka KR 60-3" Robot. The project only consists of the imported robot from the e-catalog. I then connect to OfficeLite with the configuration "KRC4-KR60_3-FLOOR", but get a bunch of "The position of the drive could not be initialized", "Drive initialization error", "Supply initialization error" etc. I am unable to turn on the drives.

    I have also tried to create a new project from WorkVisual with a controller v8.3.42 and the "KR 60-3 F" robot. Then run "generate code" and "deploy". This seems to configure the robot correctly and remove the error messages, but even if KukaSim says connected to VRC, the jog-buttons in OfficeLite are unresponsive. The robot in KukaSim does not move.

    Are there some steps I am missing?

    Thanks for any help!

    @robocoder I was stucked in the problem for wihle and finally find the trick:

    Key is the order of operation:

    Step 1: Reset Officelite as "Factory project", make sure default robot worked with KUKA.sim, for example my Officelite default robot is KR 210 R2700 Extrem, vcr of KUKA.sim set as it and work fine.

    Step 2: Very Important, don't deploy workvisual project. Set your specified robot vcr in KUKA.sim and connect Officelite, of course you get info like "incorrect machine data". Leave it and keep in connection.

    Step 3: Configure your specified robot project in Workvisual and deploy to Officelite. Problem solved.

    You should set working project as base project of Officelite as is frequent used.
