KUKA Robot KRC0979 - FILE NAME TOO LONG 2316

FILE NAME TOO LONG 2316

This alarm indicates that a file name exceeds the maximum character length allowed by the KUKA system. The KRL program object name or file path is too long and must be shortened to comply with KUKA naming conventions and file system limitations.

Common Causes

  • Object name contains more characters than the maximum allowed limit
  • File path including directory structure exceeds maximum length
  • Descriptive naming conventions used that result in excessively long identifiers
  • Nested folder structures combined with long file names create path length issues
  • Special characters or extended naming conventions not conforming to KUKA standards

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. 1Review the current file or object name that triggered the alarm and count the character length
  2. 2Reduce the object name length by removing unnecessary descriptive text while maintaining clarity
  3. 3Verify the complete file path length including all directory names and adjust directory structure if needed
  4. 4Rename the file or object to use abbreviated or shortened identifiers that comply with KUKA limits
  5. 5Consult KUKA documentation for maximum allowed character limits for object names in your KRC version
  6. 6Clear the alarm and reload the program with the corrected file name to verify the issue is resolved
