Standard solutions for data backup

You can back up and compare all available data formats on the KUKA KR C4 robot.

You have the following options for backing up a KRC4 project:

  • When using the automatic data backup for KUKA KR C4 Computer, the backup generates files with the extension ASZ. The up-to-dateness of the project created by the robot is checked using a timestamp. See figure: Standard solutions for Data backup.
  • If you create WVS projects using the WorkVisual editor, you will receive files with the extension WVS (manual data backup using editor or creation from an ASZ file using editor).
  • ZIP projects with the file extension ZIP can be obtained by archiving on the robot or by calling them up using the SmartPad.

Info

Please note: If the error message No Workvisual5 or Projectextractor.exe exists occurs, a reinstallation of WorkVisual V5 and therefore a reinstallation of MS SQL and .NET Framework will be necessary. If the error message The backup was created >X< days ago occurs, a check of the timestamp and the workflow on the KUKA KR C4 robot will be necessary. If this error message occurs, no backup is created. If you need the backup to produce an older version, you must adjust the job configuration of the job.
