Thank for replying Skyefire.
So, first question: what variant of the KRC2 is this? Volkswagen? GM? "Vanilla"? Ford?
VW KRC2 (it was inspected and certified by KUKA).
Normally the standalone jumper is placed on X11 -- I'm not familiar with XS2, offhand (granted, it's been over ten years since I did a KRC2).
Same on XS2. I have the dwgs. schematics and references.
Win95 or WinXP? ed-2005, or earlier?
W95 2004
What version of KSS is it running?
KS V5.74 2006 release.
What option packages does it have installed?
Don't know.

Does it have a servo disconnect?
Don't know
When you acknowledge the error messages, which messages remain that won't clear?
1) Ext Emergency Stop - You have a problem with X-11 circuit. Check electrical circuitry.
2) Drives contactor off - It will not be OK until you solve above problem
3) error on reading driver Interbus and
4) error on writing driver Interbus
Error 3 & 4 are related to communication of the controller with peripheral devices. What is you communication protocol? For Eg: Profibus, Devicenet or Serial?
A lot of what you need is available in the Manuals, Software&Tools sub-forum next door.
Can't find that sub-forum

KRC2 manuals are pretty plentiful, although electrical schematics are a little harder to come by (all those sub-variants...).
I have ALL the electrical schematics on paper from KUKA, came with the Controller. And got the XS2 also.
