X11 help

  • Hello,

    I am trying to run a KR16-2 KSS 5.6.10 robot with KRC2ed05 PC
    I did the X11 from the forum files - standard KRC2 type and the robot is moving fine in manual mode (T1 and T2) but cannot be moved in AUT - the I stays red
    X11 doesn't have pins on numbers 37 and 40

    The KSS is clean install, so all in Automatic external is at default settings.


    I am attaching two pages with the description of the X11 of this particular robot as i suspect that there may be is something else need to be done on the X11




    I swapped the PC and the KCP with no luck


    Any advise appreciated!

  • you do not need to connect 37 and 40. that is only for KRC1 (safety relays common...).

    if you look at my X11 jumper plug connection diagram in download section, it is clearly stated that this is for KRC1 only. when one is making test jumper plug it is convenient to add that connection so that plug can be used on both KRC2 and KRC1 but obviously KRC2 does not need it.

    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

  • can you be more specific?


    that is one way to wire X11 but ... which connections did you actually make? and did you check them? how?


    what are the messages?


    what are the states of signals grouped in AutoExternal interface?




    if robot can move in T1 then most of the safety circuit should be ok.


    the only difference in auto modes is that user safety must be closed and acknowledged. so that would be the things to check.

  • No messages at all :( it seems all is good... i recall may be i saw "safety circuit not ready" but it was cleared afterwards and didn't came up. Also i did some cold starts without any warnings etc...


    I will check the AutoExternal signals and write here


    The connections - checked triple with multimeter (and more):
    1-2
    3-4
    5-6
    7-8
    19-20
    21-22
    23-24
    25-26
    38-50
    39-51
    41-42
    43-44
    107-89
    106-88


    I have nothing at 71, 108, 70, 54

  • You're trying to use AUT mode, correct?


    How are $DRIVES_OFF and $MOVE_ENABLE configured?


    Long shot, but... can you swap the KCP for another one? It might just be that the drives-on button on the KCP isn't working.
