Configuring the Omron PLC
Refer to the EtherNet/IP Connection Guide (P649-E1-01) for configuring the Omron PLC to
work with Omron Adept robots. Refer to Resources on Omron Web Sites on page 3.
Using your PLC software, set the IP address for the PLC to connect to on the robot.
Enabling High Power
The details of enabling high power to the robot are covered in the EtherNet/IP Connection
Guide (P649-E1-01).
Once high power is enabled, the Robot Status Panel displays ON, and the amber Robot Status
LED is on.

1.7 Start-up Procedure

Aligning the Platform and J4 Motor
It is possible for either the motor shaft or the platform shaft to be turned, manually, before the
theta drive shaft is connected to both. If not detected, the software may assume the robot's tool
flange is at a different angle than it really is. To ensure that the software knows the actual rota-
tion of the tool flange with respect to the J4 motor, you need to use the ACE software to estab-
lish this alignment.
1. Within the ACE software, open the Hornet robot object.
2. In the Configure tab, click Adjust J4 Zero.
This will launch a utility for aligning the theta drive shaft.
3. Follow the instructions in the utility.
Contact Omron Adept Technologies, Inc. for more information on this procedure.
NOTE: Once the theta drive shaft is installed, the J4 motor and the tool flange will
always rotate together, so the software will know the orientation of the tool flange.
