What causes KUKA Robot alarm KRC1013?

Attempting to assign a new value to a declared constant variable. Using a constant identifier on the left side of an assignment operator (=). Accidentally declaring a variable as CONST when it needs to be modified later. Passing a constant as a reference parameter to a function that modifies it. Trying to modify array or structure elements that are declared as constant.

How do I fix KUKA Robot alarm KRC1013?

1. Review the KRL source code and identify the line number where the assignment to the constant occurs 2. Verify that the object being assigned to is not declared with the CONST keyword 3. If the variable needs to be modified, remove the CONST qualifier from its declaration 4. Check function parameters to ensure constants are not being passed by reference to functions that modify them 5. Use the KUKA IDE or text editor to search for all occurrences of the constant name and verify its usage 6. Recompile the program after making corrections and test the changes on the robot system

KUKA Robot KRC1013 - ASSIGNMENT TO CONSTANT NOT PERMISSIBLE 2350

This alarm indicates that the KRL program attempted to assign a value to a constant object, which is not permitted. Constants are read-only and their values cannot be modified after declaration, causing the compiler or runtime to reject the assignment operation.
