    Thanks vvelikov I like the idea of finding someone to repair the existing board . I was thinking it would be a bit of a trick to find a good used matching board

    I would also like to be able to fold this arm up a bit. So it does not take up so much space

    I would have thought this was still a manageable size to have push button brake release. Like a lot of other smaller arms. I did read here that in emergency. The procedure is to just dis mount the arm

    Will the kuka brake release accessory work on the kr10.

    can anyone offer any help on getting the KR10 r1100 sixx robot from home position into a storage pose, with a failed motherboard? i want to confirm the pin # on the X30 plug that operate the 12v brakes, i saw pin 4 and 5, but i need to confirm that . If i can't move it so be it but it would be nice if i could make it a bit more compact

    i want to move axis 1, 90 deg, axis 2 not quite 90, and axis 3 close to 90 deg as well

    I have seen a post about manual brake release with application of 24v on some pins. Can anyone help with the manual 24v brake release by pins at the x30 connector on the arm itself?

    the post i found was not specific to the KR10 arm

    or is it just better to use the socket and override the brakes i was pretty sure that overriding the brakes causes damaga??

    thanks, panic mode. But from what i have seen. I think i am firmly in the used parts market $ wise.

    I don't like to admit it but, this project will have to go on the shelf for now. I need to look for the manual or emergency move info to collapse arm into travel pose.

    I guess electric brake release was a option

    Hi panic mode, thanks for your help. I don't think a new motherboard is in the cards $ wise.

    But also

    I assume a new motherboard would also need a full system file rebuild as well more $

    Where with a fix the file system would remain intact???

    i am going to assume the problem was DIRT, This was not the dirtiest computer box i have seen but it is on up there. I had a fan slow warning that i disregraded as i was not running the machine more that a few minutes at a time since i have owned it.

    And I have a red light. I'm gonna assume this is bad


    I tried to get a better pick but the light washes out the text


    in case you cant see the pic, the red LED is confirmed to be red Vold Mon Fail

    i am looking up the error code now but no luck yet

    good morning. thanks Herman, i have not fully ignored the HMI stuff i have not acted on it either way, I guess i like explanations, It is difficult for me to accept a blind finite statement advice from people i don't know especially without a explanation.

    Moving forward

    today i have checked my remote monitor and its cable. I did have to have one adapter, but that was from the video source to the cable. So the whole cable and the monitor were tested.

    I want to get the remote monitor hooked up and begin troubleshooting.

    Can i get a few points of clarification on the KRC4 anatomy.

    the main/mother board is the larger board on the floor of the cabinet where i am pointing in the pic. about the video card.

    What are the other 2 boards on the movable lid of the controller one larger board labelecad X1 and another board stacked on it that has lots of rj45?

    What is under the controller deck under the X1 board


    can we clarify what i need to look for and on what board. please if you are using a abbreviations or acronyms i might have trouble

    for now i am looking for a Red Vmon LED, from Panic Mode, but i don't know where to look

    thank you . Yes exactly the first test i could not verify the cable. 2nd test i coud not verify the monitor i need to find a old computer with a DVI out

    ok sorry for the confusion. But from my end. If you are engaging with me and others on this thread. i feel like you don't read any back posts . i don't expect you to read 2 years worth, but I am trying to do what you tell me and then when i do it you say what the heck are you doing

    So i make a couple or 3 posts and you " panic mode" usualluy answer with , what the heck are u doing. this is ongoing with us.

    You yourself and pretty much all other advisors? have said the only way forward for this is to connect a external monitor . .

    I then say ok and spend the next 3 posts getting set up for the monitor i asked several times how to hook it up, and instead of answering the current question we are on you post up about a manual download. And not anything current,

    I have to assume you are reading what i and others are posting. You said you will not give up and to be patient . so if you post, I guess i am assuming that you are up to speed on what happened and you have no dissent on what is going on; since your last post a few hours or minutes ago .

    So what i did was i disconnected the pendant, and connected to the DVI port , and from there to a monitor and i powered up. I got no video nothing. There are a couple of issues that make it not a perfect test but i did 2 tests a bit differnt components on the test side and both no signal

    first try with the cable did nothing

    can i try and "PING" somethin inside the controller to see if it is powered up or booted


    OR can it make it any worse to try and ping one of the IP addresses from a older picture


    i don't know of a way to test the DSV cable it very well could be a ONE WAY cable . I might have to get a double DVI cable and a actual computer monitor

    Hi Panic mode, yes Fubini Said i should try and get a video signal from the DVI port near the koni port.

    so Panic Would there be a better way to get the video signal than the DVI.? I have a cable i can buy around the corner but i don't know if it is a dual direction cable or not. it is DVI to HDMI

    while you are here panic, i don't know if you ever gave a answer to trying any of the inputs available on the session manager menu. Either the "PING, RDP or Network". popular opinion says NO help there. That is why i kept asking what IP address to give it of the several that i have available from photos. But i kind of understand now, that where i am is for lack of a better way . i am locked out before any of those IP address entries can be even read. I guess that is how i understand it.

    ok i have a line on a DVI to HDMI cable . I am not sure if it is a dual direction cable or not. i have a USB mouse. So i am willing to give this a try even without a keyboard if that will be possible.

    Can someone help verify the procedure. from what i understand

    1. disconnect the teach pendant

    2. everything else connected normal

    3. connect usb mouse to thee usb port just below the KONI port

    4 connect a old TV hdmi to the DVI connection on the KR c4

    5. power up the system and see what happens?

    it will be a bit before the cable gets here.

    any other troubleshooting advice is appreciated.

    and Thanks Herman

    So i have looked and tried ill try to list what is availbe on the menu i have

    The PING menu is open and i can enter data and try a ping, I have not done that yet i don't know what it will do

    the RDP has some data to enter and i have not tried any of that i don't know what it is

    and the Network page i have made 2 attempts but i never filled out the data completely?


    i also still have the saftey error, I have checked the X11, it looks pretty good even with a meter. Is my system breaking down in the boot up before it gets to the safety side??

    i apologize i have been beating up on Wov, and that is not really what i mean.

    my current available options that i have on the menu. The network page is asking for a IP address and a subnet address.


    from the second photo in post 82 what happens if i put in the IP and Subnet address it is asking for


    again i do apologize for the work visual . i was thinking that maybe the workvisual connection handshake so to speak would require a IP address input that i thought i have

    thanks fubini, i had asked that question a few times and no one answered, It seems like a valid question. , and it is just a question. especially after i said i don't have that special DVI plug in stock. but if you cant handle it

    but thanks for your support so far; believe it or not it did help a bit.

    Can there be a list of the different ways to connect the monitor. you all have listed 2 so far.

    1. get a full size graphics card that seems tough

    2. i get a DVI Male to HDMI? adapter ( I can get this ) don't know about today but i saw one. that will do the monitor, then i need a old style usb keyboard and a usb mouse

    • April 24, 2025 at 6:18 PM

    ok if it is the one i am thinking I don't have that in stock.

    The one with 24 pins in 3 rows on the left and on the right it has flat cross blade with 4 pins?

    Also where do the keyboard and mouse plug in?


    and im still thinking it might be as easy as connecting to work visual why won't that work??
