Mount the MagnaTran 7 BiSymmetrik Arm Set/Cone Style
CAUTION
Do not operate the robot until all set-up procedures have been com-
pleted as damage to the robot or arms may result.
The mount position of the robot is preset at the factory. The purpose of the mount
position is to provide the operation clearance from the bottom of the transport cham-
ber when installing or removing the armset. By definition, the robot’s mount position
has the radial and theta axes at the Home position coordinates and the Z axis is at a
height of 10mm (10000 counts).
To mount the arms to the robot, power connections and communications connections
must be complete and verified. Communication may be through the serial port with
a computer or through the CDM. The following procedure identifies the commands
for both methods.
Mount/Serial Communication
1.
Ensure the arm state of the robot is off.
