Are sure that you kukavarproxy can work on the KRC2 controller version 4.1.6?
I have tried this already with the client I have written to connect to kukavarproxy and it is possible to get connection between client and kukavarproxy, in your case it is between robodk and kukavarproxy. And I belive that on the kukavarproxy you can see those variables you want to read/write. But the problem is that there is a difference in way that controller works in the case of the versions 4.1.6 and 5... I have tried the same client with the version 5(I don't remember which one excatly) and that worked.
Also are you sure it is version krc2 and not krc1?
Because I have seen krc1 with 4.1.7 and windows 98.

You can try to connect to the krc1 or to your krc2 via crosscom, but it is possible only locally for that you can build a client, but that is another topic.

In the case this is correct I am afraid that kukavarproxy will give what you are looking for.

Hi Delicato,

Thank you for your response.


I'm not certain that it's a KRC2, but the tag on the controller states that it's a type (V)KR C2. The GUI version shown on the pendant is V3 3.76 B207 (V)KR C1 V 3.3/V4.1. This system was originally built to be used in a GM factory so therefore it may not be a standard controller and there seems to be contradictions between the cabinet tag and software versions.


We bought the system used with hopes of being able to get it working with RoboDK. The controller is running windows 95. I'm not familiar with the differences between the software versions as this is the only Kuka that I've had the opportunity to work with.

I plan to continue experimenting with it to try to get things working, but if you could provide any additional insight, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again!
