6.2.1 Backup Batteries Replacement
The absolute encoder of the motor is used to record the position of the robot. When
the controller power is turned off, the position data of each -axis is preserved by the backup
batteries. The batteries are installed when the robot is delivered from the factory. If the
batteries are in use, the annual change of batteries is needed. The service life of the
batteries depends on the operating conditions of the robot. In order to avoid the loss of
position data, the batteries need to be changed by the user periodically. The procedure for
replacing the batteries of the robot is shown in Figure 6-1 and described as below.
Step1.
Press the emergency stop button to prohibit the movement of the robot motion.
Step2.
Ensure the robot and controller are connected with the cables and keep the power
on.
Step3.
Please loosen the hexagon socket screws (M3x0.5Px8L) and remove the battery
cover.
Step4.
There are four 3.6V batteries. Replace the battery
one by one
. If all batteries are
removed in the same time, the position data will be lost. If so, please resetting
the robot to the Zero-position.
Step5.
After replacing the battery, ensure to install the battery cover.
Figure 6-1 Backup batteries replacement
All batteries should be changed at one time. If the
old batteries are included, the service life of the
batteries may be reduced.
