KUKA Robot KRC0703 - DECLARATION NOT IN DECLARATION SECTION 2039

DECLARATION NOT IN DECLARATION SECTION 2039

This alarm indicates that a KRL program object declaration is located outside the designated declaration section of the source code. The KUKA KRC compiler requires all variable, function, and module declarations to be placed in the proper declaration area before any executable statements.

Common Causes

  • Declaration statement placed after executable code in the main program body
  • Variable or function declaration accidentally moved outside the VAR or DEFFCT section
  • Incorrect file structure with declarations mixed within function logic
  • Declaration appearing after a BEGIN statement instead of before it
  • Copy-paste error resulting in duplicate or misplaced declarations

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. 1Open the affected KRL source file and locate the line number referenced in the alarm message
  2. 2Identify the misplaced declaration statement (variable, function, or module definition)
  3. 3Move the declaration to the proper declaration section at the beginning of the program before any executable code
  4. 4Verify the program structure follows KRL syntax: declarations first, then BEGIN, then executable statements
  5. 5Check for any syntax errors or missing keywords that may have caused the parser to misidentify the section
  6. 6Recompile the program and verify the alarm is resolved
