Adding an EL2008 into the robot IO cards

Hi all,

KRC4, KSS8.6.8.

KUKA delivered the robot with 1 EL1809 and 1 EL2809 which were already configured into the robot project.

I want to add an EL2008 (before the EL1809) and an EL9100 before the EL2809 so:

EK1100, EL2008, EL1809, EL9100, EL2809.

When I try to add the EL 2008 and I deploy the project appears 2 errors KSS13007 and KSS13015 which that reads:

<SYS-X44> Error Ethercat Bus-Scan. Device: CFG_Dev.: EL1809 16Vh Dig Input 24V, 3ms [BUS-Dev.: EL2008]

I have downloaded the latest Beckhoff ESI files (which are the same than the ones in my WoV (latest version here).

Am I doing something wrong?

Missing any step?

Thank you all!

Hi Bottech,

Been working with Beckhoff for years, I got used to add the first card to control lights and buzzers then inputs and then a power supply which I connect to the emergency voltage to get the next outputs without power as soon as an emergency kicks in.

In the topology, changes were not made automatically... I really would have never imagined that... I imagined that changing the cards order in the left tree would automagically make the topology changes...

In any case, I changed it manually to the right order and now it works properly!

Thank you very much!
