  • Page 22: Safety Measures For The System

    CHAPTER 1 Using the Robot Safely Safety Measures for the System Since the robot is commonly used in conjunction with an automated system, a dangerous situation is more likely to occur from the automated system than from the robot itself. Accordingly, appropriate safety measures must be taken on the part of the system manufacturer according to the individual system.

  • Page 23: Trial Operation

    CHAPTER 1 Using the Robot Safely Trial Operation After installation, adjustment, inspection, maintenance or repair of the robot has been done, perform a trial operation using the following procedures.

  • Page 48: Robot Parameter Settings

    CHAPTER 4 Installation Robot parameter settings Please take note of the following points when setting parameter data on the ro- bots. (Refer to the DRCX, TRCX or QRCX controller instruction manual.) • Do not set the plus and minus software limits larger than the default set- tings (operating range as listed in the specifications).

  • Page 49: Setting The Origin Position

    CHAPTER 4 Installation Setting the origin position All models of the YP-X series use a position detector for absolute reset. The origin position (“0” pulse position) is set by performing absolute reset. Once absolute reset is performed, it is not needed when the power is turned on again.

  • Page 50: Mark Method (R-Axis)

    The mark method or the stroke end method can be used to perform absolute reset for the YP-X series. The mark method is used for the R-axis default setting and the stroke end method is used for the X, Y and Z axis default settings.

  • Page 51: Stroke End Method (X, Z, Y Axes)

    CHAPTER 4 Installation Stroke end method (X, Z, Y axes) In absolute reset by the stroke end method, the position where the axis tip strikes the mechanical stopper is detected, and absolute reset performed at a position backed off slightly from the stroke end. WARNING Making physical contact with the robot during operation can cause severe injuries.

  • Page 52: Adjustment Of The Belt Tension
