    Hello All,

    we have 3x KRC2ed05 robots.

    All were bought as second hand, which means they come from different backgrounds.

    However, they were stripped down to the very basics, before being sold. No external axes, no interfaces, no safety options, no BMW, GM, Audi add-ons...nothing.

    But....

    they all have different safety boards! We have 1x CI3 Standard, 1x CI3 Extended and 1x CI3 Tech(!). All three cabinets have the same number of cables and the same plugs going to the safety boards. Unused connectors may remain empty or have plugs with shorts.

    So, the question is, is it possible (for troubleshooting purposes), to swap safety boards?

    If we look at the cables and connectors, it appears that 'yes'.

    But I'm not sure if they are declared anywhere in the software. So I am kindly asking for your experience...

    Although, I think I remember sometime in the past, we swapped HDDs and they still worked fine. Anyway, anyone with experience on this, please?

    Hi RAS-Skordos GR.

    Did you end up finding out if it was possible?

    Hello Ian,

    I am not very experienced and I cannot say if this is safe on every occasion.

    But, yes, it worked for me. All 3 different boards worked with all 3 different robots.
