Hi, thanks for your reply,

Still I need more help. Let me reform my question. I don't have PLC connected to the KRC4 (KSS 8.6) and I need to enable to motion that is blocked due to missing safety input signals.

I don't want to connect a PLC and I will use KUKA Ethernet. KLA to communicate with the KRC4 and robot via TCP/IP commands.

picture 1 shows Beckhoff digital I/O installed,

Moreover, I can add Beckhoff EL1918 yellow TwinSafety terminal

My question is: How to set the connect and set the safety byte (picture 2). ONLY via Beckhoff EL1908 and/or EL1918 ? without connected to PLC?

Hello All,

We received pre-owned KRC4 that doesn't have SIB nor X11. I need to enable the motion and start programming directly from the HMI without connected to external PLC.

We have Beckhoff terminal El1908 installed. How can I enable the safety-relevant signals via the EL1908 inputs?

Also, can I install and use EtherCAT/IP protocol?

I need to enable the motion without PLC
