The KSS11012 error in a KUKA robot indicates a mismatch between the configured device and the actual device present in slot 1, subslot 1 of the KRC controller. This discrepancy can prevent the robot from functioning correctly.

Common Causes of KSS11012 Error

1. Incorrect Device Configuration: The KSS controller may have incorrect information about the device installed in slot 1, subslot 1.
2. Hardware Issues: There might be a problem with the device itself, such as a faulty connection or power supply issue.
3. Software Glitches: Software errors or conflicts can cause the KSS controller to misidentify the device.

Troubleshooting Steps

1. Verify Device Configuration: Check the KSS controller's configuration to ensure that the device type and configuration match the actual device installed in slot 1, subslot 1.
2. Inspect Hardware: Ensure that the device is securely connected to the KRC controller and that there are no loose connections or damaged cables.
3. Try a Different Slot: If possible, try moving the device to a different slot on the KRC controller to see if the error persists.
