Starting the Robot Arm

 

Always verify the actual payload and installation are correct before starting up the robot arm. If these settings are incorrect, the robot arm and Control Box will not function correctly and may become dangerous to people or equipment.

Ensure the robot arm is not touching an object (e.g., a table) because a collision between the robot arm and an obstacle might damage a joint gearbox.

To start the robot:

  • Tap the Robot State icon in the footer, followed by the green icon Power On button to start the initialization process.

    The Robot State icon turns yellow and states Locked to indicate the power is on and in Idle. The Power Off and Unlock buttons appear.

    An Active Payload field is available to input data in kilogram.

  • Tap the yellow Unlock button to release the brakes.

  • Tap the red Power Off to power off the robot arm.
