What causes KUKA Robot alarm KRC0936?

Incorrect dot notation syntax when accessing object members or nested structures. Reference to an undefined variable, function, or module name in the path expression. Typo or case sensitivity mismatch in the object name referenced in the path. Attempting to access array elements or structure members that do not exist. Invalid use of special characters or whitespace in the path expression syntax.

How do I fix KUKA Robot alarm KRC0936?

1. Review the KRL code line indicated in the error message and verify the path expression syntax follows proper dot notation 2. Check that all referenced object names (variables, functions, modules) are correctly declared and spelled with proper case sensitivity 3. Confirm that array indices and structure member names correspond to valid declarations in the current scope 4. Verify that all required modules or includes are loaded and visible to the current program context 5. Use the KUKA IDE code editor to validate syntax and check for any underlined errors in the path expression 6. If referencing external modules, ensure they are properly imported and the full path to the object is correctly specified
