What causes KUKA Robot alarm KRC0880?

Array declaration with dimensions that exceed maximum element count for the specified type. Complex nested structure or custom data type instance that grows beyond size limits. String variable or character array declared larger than the system supports for that context. Attempt to create a dynamic array or object that surpasses available memory allocation. Incorrect type casting or declaration of an oversized structure in a restricted memory zone.

How do I fix KUKA Robot alarm KRC0880?

1. Review the KRL source code and identify the line number where the object is declared, noting the object name and its specified size 2. Check the KUKA KRL documentation for maximum size limits applicable to the specific data type being used 3. Reduce the dimensions or complexity of the problematic object; consider using smaller arrays or breaking large structures into smaller components 4. Verify that the correct data type is being used; sometimes using a more memory-efficient type (e.g., INT instead of REAL) can resolve the issue 5. If using custom structures, review all nested components to ensure no redundant or oversized members are included 6. Recompile the KRL program after modifications and verify the alarm no longer appears during the compilation or runtime phase

Alarm KRC0880

KUKA Robot KRC0880 - TYPE TOO LARGE 2216

This alarm indicates that a KRL program object (variable, array, or data structure) exceeds the maximum allowed size for its type category. The compiler or runtime environment has detected that the object declaration or instantiation violates memory constraints defined for that particular data type classification.
