    how can I connect the DeviceNet scanner module with a laptop to establish communication with micrlgx 1500 lrp ? What all things are required for the communication ?

    Hai everyone,

    I am new with kuka,I have KUKA KRC2 with Version V5.5.16,other end I have Allen Bradly Micrologix 1500 which has devicenet scanner module 1769 SDN macid=63 also it has devicenet I/O module IL 2302 macid=10

    I am trying to communicate these two modules from robot,

    In DEVNET FILE I wrote as

    Code
    [krc]
    debug=0
    baudrate=500
    
    [1]
    macid=63
    
    [2]
    macid =10

    In iosys.ini file I wrote as

    Code
    [DEVNET]
    INB0=63,0,x32
    OUTB0=63,0,x32
    INB64=10,0,x1
    OUT64=10,0,x1

    I got error in the robot as

    Configuration error I/O driver DN2DRV

    Error on Writing,driver:DN2DRV

    Can anyone provide your valuable suggestions.

    Thanks in Advance

    ADVMIN

    Scanner is another name for master. If your KRC is using DNET interface on MFC, direct communication is not possible because MFC is also a scanner. For this to work one of them need to be a master and other need to be a slave...workaround is to use suitable gateway. Each side of gateway would appear as slave to respective master

    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

    Another option is to not use MFC. Get LPDN card. This can act as master oe slave or both. .

    Many thanks for your reply.

    How can we make the MFC a 'SLAVE' ? Is that possible ?


    cheers

    It means that no Tool was active, and as such, workspace monitoring was not possible. Your active Tool Number was probably set to 0. This is fairly normal after a reboot or a program cancel/reset. The message should clear itself when you activate a valid tool.
