    Hello

    We purchased KR40 PA and it is on the way. So I don't have the real robot right now, but I want to make some offline programming with Office Lite.

    I made the new WoV project with the right controller,KSS version and robot. But when I deploy it on the OL, the virtual robot starts with the inadequate position as you can see on screenshot. The problem is I cant move it to the right position even with turned off software limits for all axis because of 5th, that seems to be flipped...

    What am I doing wrong? I don't believe, that OL don't have the feature to simulate the robot when you don't have the backup from real one...

    Easiest way to fix this is to remaster the robot inside OL. This should switch the current position to a valid one.

    ...or just jog axes to a normal range.

    either way you will see this every time you start OL. if this is too much of a annoyance, consider opening soft limits to include initial position.

    1) read pinned topic: READ FIRST...

    2) if you have an issue with robot, post question in the correct forum section... do NOT contact me directly

    3) read 1 and 2

    The problem should be axis 2 and axis 3

    just using the demo version of robodk:

    comparing it with your image from post #1 there is little difference

    There also might be a (known) problem with OL

    Running OL the first time using a specific robot you always going to have the problem you are having right now (unless you screwed up the first place) .

    In order to solve the problem you need to move all the axes (a2 and and a3) into the allowed area, make cold start with reading files and the problem should be solved.

    PA robots only have 4 axes , one axis is set to zero (normally a4) and axis 5 depends on the settings of axis 2 and axis 3 (you normally can not change a5).
