What to do if Kuka KR C2 edition05 Controller connecting cable is defective?
Exchange KCP with connecting cable.
What to do if my Kuka KR C2 edition05 cannot boot from hard disk?
If the controller cannot boot from the hard disk, it might be because the BIOS fails to detect the hard drive. Try loading the KUKA default settings. Also, check if the IDE cable and power supply are correctly connected. If not, connect them correctly. If the issue persists, the hard drive or motherboard may be defective, requiring you to exchange the hard drive or the PC.
What to do if there is no display on the Kuka KR C2 edition05 LCD?
If there is no display on the LCD, the connecting cable may be defective. Exchange the KCP with the connecting cable. The KVGA may also be defective, so try exchanging it. If neither of those solutions work, the KCP itself may be defective and need to be replaced.
What to do if Kuka KR C2 edition05 Controller system repeatedly resets itself (reboot)?
If the system repeatedly resets itself, it may be due to defective memory modules. In this case, exchange the memory modules. The KVGA or KSD may also be defective, so try exchanging them as well.
What to do if Kuka KR C2 edition05 PC boots normally but the display is dark?
If the PC boots normally but the display remains dark, the KVGA may be defective, so try exchanging it. Another possible cause is a cable break in the KCP connecting cable, in which case you should exchange the KCP connecting cable.
What to do if Kuka KR C2 edition05 Controller shows error message "xxxxx I/O driver configuration error"?
If you receive the error message "xxxxx I/O driver configuration error", the field bus card may be incorrectly configured, so check the configuration. Also, the field bus card may not be able to be initialized, so exchange the field bus card. Finally, the configuration of the file IOSYS.INI may be incorrect, so check the entries in IOSYS.INI.
What to do if Kuka Controller Space Mouse does not work?
If the Space Mouse does not work, the connecting cable may be defective, so exchange the KCP with the connecting cable. The Space Mouse itself could be defective, so replace the KCP. If the issue persists, the MFC3 (CAN bus) might be defective, so exchange the MFC3.
What to do if Communication via Kuka KR C2 edition05 Controller diagnostic interface is not possible?
If communication via the diagnostic interface is not possible, check the data cable and periphery for faults. If those are working, the diagnostic interface on the field bus card may be defective, so exchange the field bus card.
What to do if Kuka Controller KUKA.HMI does not boot and is aborted with a General Protection fault?
If KUKA.HMI does not boot and is aborted with a General Protection fault, it may be due to defective files in the software installation. Try reinstalling the control software. Also, check the settings in CMOS setup and ensure they are correct. Finally, defective memory modules can cause this issue, so try exchanging the memory modules.
What to do if Kuka KR C2 edition05 gives BIOS error message "MEMORY TEST FAILED"?
If you receive the BIOS error message "MEMORY TEST FAILED", it indicates that the memory module is defective. You should exchange the memory module.
