(E1145)Cannot use specified channel, already in use, E controller

Welcome to the forum...............

Reduce the requirement for the usage of 'where' in your process.

Use Robot as TCP-client?

That would be a better solution in my opinion.

Create a background task and use TCPIP to send your specific data only when you require it.

I would use the following command and prepare/encode it as a string and then send via TCPIP.

Just to add, you could also use the available data logging/data storage function for monitoring the motor currents.

It's not very flexible, just frequency really, just select what you want, start it, stop it, save it (which creates a .csv file).

I've never dived deep into using it though, in terms of saving and externally sending the file (may require a purchasable option.

May be worth exploring this option, as a 'ready' to go option.

Hey kwakisaki,
in which manual can I find this screen? I searched, but did not find it.

The error codes can be found in the troubleshooting manual.

Thanks, do you know where I can find this manual? I googled and went through the forum via search tool and found nothing.

Troubleshooting manuals are usually provided directly from your local Kawasaki distributor.

Please contact them, they are more than willing to supply them if you just ask.

Alternatively, join the Kawasaki Download Centre, you can then eat as many manuals as you can:

Kawasaki Robotics Download Centre - Manuals, Software and Tools for Kawasaki Robots - Robotforum - Support and discussion community for industrial robots and cobots (robot-forum.com)

However you will not find ALL error code explanations in there, many error codes are just in a list and the explanations have never been added to the manuals.

E1145 is one such error code.

Thank you! I had a similar problem with the simultaneous read where command. I made an application that reads telnet data from a robot and I just want to secure my application if there are more cases like this.

I am not sure exactly why the 'where' commands create this error but I assume they are related to data storage option as that carries out same process (I think they use same channels).

The data storage option will allow logging and produces .csv file without need of using telnet to external sources.

This may be better to use to secure your application, maybe worthwhile looking into see if you have this option enabled or ask Kawasaki distributor to provide you this option.

Attached is the option manual, so you can at least research this option.

KRoset also has this function, so you can test it before deployment if you have KRoset.
