0.0.3 Product documentation, M2004
General
The robot documentation may be divided into a number of categories. This listing is based on
the type of information contained within the documents, regardless of whether the products
are standard or optional. This means that any one delivery of robot products will not contain
all documents listed, but only some of them.
However, all documents listed may be ordered from ABB. The documents listed are valid for
M2004 robot systems.
Hardware

that is divided into two parts:
