We had a Transfer directory on the D drive of each robot where programmers could push updated Master modules from the Git repo
Am I correct that all coding/programming was done offline?
The original codebase for Git only required on pull of the KRC to initialize it.
Sound like an effective setup.
How large was the team if I may ask?
Just my 2 cents.
You can use WorkVisual to get more direct access to the files. With the 'Programming and Diagnoses' workspace you can create a connection to your KRC.
In your Documents/WorkVisual folder you will find a subdir 'Repositories'. In there there is a directory for each KRC that contain the R1 and STEU folders (and everything below).
edit: I see that c3bridge requires windows. While our external PC is running on Linux.
c3bridge is crudely said another kukavarproxy . The client can run on any platform as long as it speaks the defined protocol. You should be able to use it with a linux based client.
that is incorrect... all you needed to do is use manuals for your KSS version. are you sure you are using correct manuals?
I stand corrected... used incorrect kss version manual.
Thanks Fubini!
I thought I remembered there was something...
I can see the value with display -> variable -> single
To add, it is not mentioned in any of the system variables or the system integrator manuals and does not show up in a full project search in WorkVisual.
Thanks again!
Hi,
Currently working on a KR C4, KSS V8.6.7.353.
Is there a way to get the current user level (operator to expert) from a system variable? (I could not find it in any of the 'system variables' manuals)
I have the need to provide this info to the HMI through a PLC.
Hi,
Just ran into this memo. Interesting.
What is the value of $STOPMB_ID in the code you posted?
Hi,
I only just ran into this post.
FWIW, I run multiple instances of the same OL (8.5.6) on my laptop. Each one for different projects. As you know, I can only run one at a time since I have a single license.
To add, migrated this setup to Windows 11 about a month ago and had to upgrade VMWare to 16.x.x as version 15 will not run on Window 11.
There is a 30 day trial version available for Kuka sim 4.0...
You can do programming in the new 4.0 version
You have to use the adapter in NAT mode as Kuka tells you.
Turn of your firewall to see if that helps.
I use vmware workstation 15.0.0 as per advice of Kuka.
Hi,
So if I understand correctly: you copy a KRL program (you wrote?) to the KRC. The program requires UserTech. Usertech is not installed.
Yes, probably that is why you get the message 'program not available'.
Another universal solution is to use the KUKA provided TOOL_CORR frame and TOOL_CORR_ON defined in system/config.dat. One can set the frame to the required offset values and set TOOL_CORR_ON to true.
Beware of the advance run. It may be required to stop the advance run to activate the tool correction on intented line.
