“BinaryFixed.exe” is the server program of EthernetKRL, it is running in the host,and it is communicating with the program in KUKA which is in a virtual machine.“BinaryFixed.exe” is an example of EthernetKRL.

Thanks very much for reply.I did follow the help documentation in EthernetKRL.I put the file -"BinaryFixed.xml" in the correct directory.Sorry for that the content in my previous post is wrong.

And I run "BinaryFixed.exe" befor I run the program in KUKA.And I configed the server well as the document said ,I can ping server from OfficeLite.But I can not ping KUKA in my host pc,even though I chang the ip and submask to make them in one subnet.

"EKI_Init" is OK.The program stop at "EKI_Open",the HMI showed "Ethernet connection to external system failed".And the log file showed that "Can't connect to IP 192.168.129.1 and port 59152 Errornumber(-1)"。

I think the problem is KUKA can not connect the host pc.In physical world，I must plug in wire to KUKA KLI，but in simulation，I did nothing.Should I do something?And where is wrong?Thank you again.

In the windows environment of OfficeLite, I can not ping the default IP “172.31.1.147” of KLI.

But It is OK in the real robot。

Why?? Should I config something?

I need to use EtherNetKRL in OfficeLite.

My steps are as follows：

1、Copy "BinaryFixed.xml" to the directory:
"C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ETHERNETKRL\DOC\Example\Config".

2、Copy "src" and "dat" to Robot

3、The network adapter "VMware Network Adapter VMnet8" of Vmware is in NAT mode,I set the IP fixed as "192.168.1.2"

4、 Set the IP of "BinaryFixed.xml" as 192.168.1.2 , Port as 59153

After deploying this, I run the program in smartHMI,it showed an error saying "Ethernet connection to external system failed".

After searching,I found following things:
1、 I need use KUKA-router to Port forwarding.But no one showed details. I added two nodes in KUKA-router as follows:

Target Host Source Port Target Port
192.168.1.2 59153 59153 (same as VMnet8 and BinaryFixed.xml )
192.168.1.3 59154 59154 (the IP config in smartHMI,the Port is Written at random)

But it is useless.....

2、Someone said make the Vmware port to Vxworks,but where is the Vxworks IP?

Forgive me for my bad English and description. Thanks any suggestion!!! :
