112

BEA-Trip (Ballast resistor current detection error)

Kuka · KR C2 Robot Controller

What does 112 mean?

This fault indicates that the optocoupler responsible for detecting current flow through the ballast resistor is signaling no current, even when expected (KPS-600). This suggests a fault in the ballast resistor, its associated circuitry, or the optocoupler itself, preventing proper regenerative energy dissipation.

Repair Steps

  1. 1

    Measure the resistance of the ballast resistor to ensure it is not open-circuited.

  2. 2

    Verify that voltage is present across the ballast resistor terminals when regenerative braking is expected.

  3. 3

    Inspect the optocoupler circuit board for power supply and signal integrity, if accessible.
