One of my customers had a power outage and the Kuka Robot KRC4 when powered back up had several errors, mostly machine data errors, like Robot Name, and others. I originally installed this system several years back and the in house Engineers have made several changes and also added some programs to the system. Of course those Engineers never made any back ups and are now no longer with the company so they called me to get this going again. My question is if I have a backup copy with good machine and config data from my original install and grabbed a copy of the corrupted krc4 could I use my old copy of the machine and config and just use their running programs to create a functional program again?
I know I could probably work thru all the errors and eventually get it back but looking for a quick solution.
I loaded my backup of the last time I was there and it worked right away but of course all the source programs are different and several new ones added but it went into EXT Auto without any errors right away.
