ruparkash,

check this link.hope this helps.

maybe you can give the wvs project and some photos of the controller while its on. and cable connection of robot to controller photo as well.

irobot can i also have those doc?

hi panic,
yes that 1 is installed on the slot near to the cpu. but now the slot got problem or its not working. so we want to use the 2nd slot next to it.
but its not configured. maybe there is something inside the robot that we need to change to make it work on the 2nd slot?
1st slot problem: LED on the LAN port are dead. it cannot connect to X44, x42 and x48.
2nd slot: LED are turned on(working) but, not configured. maybe. it cannot connect to X44, x42 and x48.

Thanks panic.

hi to all,

Good day. has anyone have and idea to use the 2nd pci slot for the network card? i mean configure it.
currently we think that the 1st slot is damage cause led of lan port is not blinking or turning on. but when we tried to put it on the 2nd slot it blinking and 4 led are on.
we have a krc4 controller. the mother board is FUJITSU D3076-K1 V4.6.4.0 R1.11.0 for D3076-K1x

thanks and regards,
EMBEN

cannot connect to KLI and do a WV connection.

hello,

anyone have seen these errors?or have an idea about these?
please see attached file for the errors.HMI is not continuing to boot. photos are taken from a connected monitor. Reason for these error'they change the KLI subnet mask from 255.255.0.0 to 255.255.255.0
then after did a reboot cold start. that happen HMI didnt continue on booting. NO BACKUP...

thanks and regards.

try powermill from delcam

Yes, that's correct. It would allow you to reduce the total static memory load by only loading the set of programs that you need immediately.

The problem of individual program size is less amenable to solution, especially on a robot that old. Generally the approach is to use more widely-spaced program points to reduce the total number of points in the program, and to break up complex paths into multiple smaller programs that can be called in sequence.

You might be able to increase the RAM installed on the motherboard, and then increase the KSS memory size to match, but I've never done this on a KRC1, only KRC2s. And you have to be very careful about your RAM -- VxWorks, as a hard-realtime OS, is much more sensitive to minor timing errors in RAM that Windows can generally ignore. That's one reason that replacement RAM for KUKAbots is so expensive -- it's guaranteed to work with these tight timing tolerances. Regular off-the-shelf PC RAM may or may not work, it's a crapshoot.

skyfire,
can you give me an instruction how you do it on krc4. wanna try it on krc4. thanks
thats might what we need.
emben

skyfire,
what about on krc4? have you tried it? 8.3.

Quote from SkyeFire

You're speaking of something completely different. The thread was about controlling programs from a remote computer, not loading them.

KUKA's DirLoader option might work, if your KRC1 is not too old.

skyfire,
isnt kukadirloader is only for copying and deleting files on a certain path?

hi has anyone made this? im interested on this topic. cause we have a lots of file on milling application and r1 doesnt have enough memory. can anyone suggest something?

thanks and regards.

Tried to KRC2 for krc4 not know you can try ....

cant find these on krc4. ks version8.3 anyone have an idea?
thanks.

Hi,guys,
I want to find a function,when I reboot the KRC ,the $out could keep the state when the robotshut down.does KRC hase the function?

rain maker,.

have you tried hibernate instead of cold start? these function can retain all the outputs that is on/true from previous shutdown.

hi
to change the physical memory size of the file entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\KUKA Roboter GmbH\Cross3|Manager\Boot\VxWin

search:

"PhysicalPages"=dword:00000bb8 -------> value is HEX, 00000bb8 is an example

every 3000 matches 15 Mb of programs

maximum possible value 61A8

Thanks devilrouse gonna try that later.
is it the same for krc2 and krc4?

Quote from Spl

So, just to make sure, you can load any one of those modules to the robot, but not all of them?

Spl,

Yes. i can load any of the modules.but not all of it.

hello sirs,

Anyone have tried to adjust the memory of R1 directory?i mean to make this directory larger.
We have a kuka milling process so we have a huge toolpath or lines on each program like (8modules with 40k lines each).
When i tried to copy all these files in the robot iam having an error of KSS02713: no physical memory available. any suggestion for this?

Thank you and regards,
EMBEN

Well, your average slicer outputs G-Code, usually made to the loose RepRap standard. So what you need is a way to convert G-Code to KRL. I've dabbled in writing a parser that would convert simple G-Code to KRL, but never really took it very far.

There's the KUKA.CNC option package, which I haven't used, but I've been told that it allows a KRC4 to run G-Code natively. I'm sure there's some caveats on that, but it's something to look into. I think the tricky bit would be coordinating your extruder, since most G-Code in industry is intended for milling spindles, which don't normally change speed dynamically during a cut path.

I don't have any direct experience with PowerMill or its alternatives, so I can't speak to them very well. I've heard good things about the Grashopper&Rhino combo. Search the forum archives for posts by "neeboy" -- as I recall, he had some luck with this on an old KRC1.

One issue will be coordinating the extruder -- aside from the fact that you'll need each motion step to coordinate with a set amount of extruder motion, you'll also have to handle the accel/decel ramps. In regular 3DPs, the former is handled by the slicer, and the latter is handled by the machine-specific firmware.

Robots also prefer sparser motion files than CNC/3DP machines. The former want a small number of points, filling in the paths on their own, while the latter generally run on a very large number of very small motions. One of the main things a converter has to do is smooth out this profile -- just converting G-Code into an equal number of robot motions tends to create very herky-jerky motion.

hi skyfire,
can you give some sample src file that you covert from g-code to krl?
cause that my issue now how to make those gcode coverts to krl. or any software that we can use know even if it cost a price.
thank you.

Thanks skyefire,

those things that you mention will be done on testing.i will remember all these stuff that you mention
do you have any idea about the software that i can use on this project if i cant use powermill for it?

Hi sir,

Im planning to try a robot with 3d printing application.i was planning to use the krc4 kr10 agilus that we have here.
does anyone tried it before? can you give me an idea what extruder to be use and for the toolpath what software can be use?
by the way we have powermill software for milling stuff right now im checking it if there option that maybe i can use for these project.

Thank you sirs.
