9.2 Verification testing of security functions
After each re debugging, all security features must be verified:
Test project:
Local emergency stop function (press emergency stop → STOP 0/1)
External emergency stop function (disconnect external contacts → STOP 1)
Enable switch function (release middle position → STOP 0)
Safety door function (open door → STOP 1)
Verify input function (disconnect QE → STOP 0)
T1 speed verification:
Programming a maximum speed linear trajectory
Calculate trajectory length
Run at 100% magnification in T1 mode and time with a stopwatch
Calculate actual speed not exceeding 250mm/s
9.3 Network Security and Antivirus
With the development of Industry 4.0, the network security of robot controllers is becoming increasingly important
KUKA recommends security measures:
When integrating the controller into the company network, a firewall must be installed
Regularly update the virus database and perform virus scans
Change the default passwords for "Expert" and "Administrator"
Only authorized personnel are aware of the password

9.4 Safety measures for single point control
When using the Submit interpreter, PLC, OPC server, or remote maintenance tool, it is necessary to pay attention to the principle of "single point control":
Potential risks:
Submit interpreter can modify robot motion in T1/T2 mode
OPC servers can modify programs or outputs without being detected
External keyboard and mouse can modify parameters without the operator's knowledge
Protective measures:
Do not use Submit interpreter or PLC to modify safety related signals
OPC server is only used for diagnosis and visualization, not for parameter modification
When using KCP, unplug the external keyboard and mouse
