Absolute battery
CAUTION
Do not process or extend the cable, or abnormal operation or malfunction may occur.
NOTE
• If the absolute battery is disconnected from the BAT connector with the power turned off, the robot enters
the return-to-origin incomplete status.
Since the absolute battery connector has not been connected to the controller at shipment to prevent
discharge, the alarm message showing the return-to-origin incomplete status is always displayed when turning
on the power for the first time. This alarm message does not show the controller or robot failure.
• When the controller power is turned off for a period of time exceeding the backup retention time, the battery
needs to be replaced.
• When storing the controller for an extended period of time, disconnect the absolute battery from the BAT
connector to suppress the consumption of the absolute battery.
