So I'm trying to connect 2 of our smaller robots in the plant here to our network.
Both robots are running the KRC4 Compact controller. One robot is a KR3 and the other a KR6
None of them run Profinet. All run on Profibus. I have searched both the forums, through Kuka Xpert, Manuals and the commisioning manuals.
Both robots are running 8.3 one is on 8.3.37 and the other on 8.3.14
using WV6.0 but have also tried using WV5.0
From what I can gather this shouldn't be to hard to do.
You go to the startup - network and then you can change your KLI to a static IP and make sure it matches your companies network.
Ive also tried looking at the NAT ports. Manual says the 49xxx ports are for windows and connecting to Work visual.
I have the check box on the Virtual5 network checked for the windows interface.
I then Save everything and it tells me to reboot with reload files.
When I reboot the RC everything seems fine.
When I plug into the network I start getting SYS X44 PB slave errors.
To me this looks like the network is trying to reconfigure my PB slaves like I'm setup for Profinet? Is this a Port Issue?
I can't seem to find an answer anywhere and I'm wondering is there something I'm just missing that is obvious?
Ive read through at least 3 manuals that shows how to configure the KLI so that we can make program changes through the network but nothing explains why I'm having Profibus issues after I connect the KLI up.
