&Comment line is where you can write a small comment for your src file. Like a small description of what src is used for or anything you like.
You can also enter the comment for your src by selecting it and going into properties of that src.

It is little bit tricky with DC voltage circuit if you ask me. A minor surge can blow off your electronic devices without even a blink to the protections you have. The best way to deal with electronics is to have proper earthing with lowest possible earthing resistance.
I would recommend you to check again the earthing on the controller with proper earth tester. Earthing is the most important parameter in the industry and most neglected as well.
Thanks
Hi,
I think you need a GSDML file in your project for that particular part and then it will be shown in the device description. You will be allowed to put that part in the extension bus.
Thanks
Looking at the picture it seems like the Smartpad is loosing connection with the Robot Interface. Did you try to check the ethercat connections coming to the controller? These ethercat connectors are really a pain. They get loose if not properly inserted.
Also, check the connectors on SIB card.
Thanks
or Use Dropbox or WeTransfer
I think you can change it. I always use an editor to edit the $machine.dat or $config.dat (keeping the backup of the version always) and then copy it to the Robot directory (after cancelling the submit).
How to change some of the machine data parameters located in "ROBOTER\KRC\R1\Mada\$machine" such as,
You can change the real variables to decimal values.
I am not sure of these two variables as I never tried to touch them though.
$AXIS_DIR[1]=-1 ; ? Can it be changed to 1
$AXIS_DIR[2]=1 ; change it to -1 in order to follow the right hand rule.
Hi,
Is the controller in dusty environment? Do you see any kind of vibration in the controller. I often face this kind of reboot issue because of lack of maintenance from customer end as the controllers are always in open areas.
Thanks
"the icon of men buckled is yellow, IP is green, robot icon is in red."...what? That description makes no sense. It looks like a bad Google translation from Chinese to Swahili to English.
No, it makes sense.
Zeev is trying to explain the 3 icons on top of Smartpad (KRC4) when you turn the KeySwitch. I facd few days back similar problem with one of my new KRC4 robots. I was trying to jog it and after few degrees of jog it was entering into safety stop. I started diagnosis step by step.
1). Checked all the X-11 connections.
2). Checked all the connections inside the controller.
2). Tried reconfigure Safety configurations.
3). Reloaded the base project from WorkVisual and tried configuration again.
4). Then with one of my colleague, I checked the 24 VDC voltage on the controller and drives. The voltage was dropping after few seconds of jogging the axes. So, the KPS (Power Supply) was faulty.
Now, I hve few questions to you Zeev:
1). Are you trying to jog the robot? Is it able to move or simply doesn't allow you to do so.
2). Did you try Start-up mode operation?
3). Do you see any other alarm message other than Safety Stop?
4). Could you post some screenshot of the alarm window?
I would suggest to go step by step and try some out of the box methods to find the problem.
Thanks
You can check the variable name $ROBROOT. If the values of this variable is not equal to zero that means the world coordinates is set to other values.
Ideally, every new robot has $ROBROOT values equal to zero but it can always be changed upon requirement.
Thanks
Sorry typo...loose connections
It seems like the case of life connection. I think you should start with electrical connections. You can find the related documents in parts and documents CD. You can find their X11 connections and controller internal connections.
Yes, You are right, and actually I also thought about specifying that when I wrote my post. Changing the code of a running program is probably difficult, no matter which language it is written in. You have to finish making the changes, before the program pointer catches up with you

Now I got it. I was bit surprised to read that. I experienced this that we may change the motion commands and some other stuffs while the src file is selected but not command line statements.
Thanks
I think you mentioned the answer of your problem in the description. If one of the safety circuit is not working then try to jumper it. Hmmmm....
Did you try to run the robot in Start-Up Mode? It will help you.
Thanks
Ohhhhhh....
I forgot to mention about file association option.
Thanks
And after importing the KRL in NPP, you have to select the language from language menu and it will work for you.
Hi RoboticsMan!!!
I am curious to know how we can change the program while it is running. Never did so.
Thanks
You can take backup of any robot at a time but I do not understand what do mean by two robots at a time. Panic Mode is right, we can always change the name of Robot and have different archive names thus avoiding the problem of over-writing.
Thanks
Hi,
You have to select the path:
File>Archive>USB(KCP).
Thanks
Cold Start is a good option if not you can reset the IO drivers. This is what Panic Mode meant to say I guess. You can go through Configuration Manual and the method is explained there.
Configure>IO Driver>Reset IO Driver
I would suggest to copy configmon.ini file from C>KRC>USER to your computer and edit the file their and copy it back to the same folder.
You will not need to stop the robot and your purpose will be solved in a much better way.
Working on controller is bit tough in my opinion.
Thanks
