Appendix1-Error Reporting and Handling

1.1 Joints Error Message and Error Handling

●

Error processing method: Re-power on, the steps are as follows:

1. Turn the emergency stop button on the control box

2. Enable the robotic arm

●

UFactory studio enable method: Click the guide button of the error

pop-up window.

●

850-Python-SDK enable method: Refer to Error Handling Mode.

●
