Restarting an interrupted calibration procedure
If the Axis Calibration procedure is interrupted before the calibration is finished,
the RobotWare program needs to be started again. Use this procedure to take
required action.
Situation
The three-position enabling device on the
FlexPendant has been released during robot
movement.
The RobotWare program is terminated with
PP to Main.
Axis Calibration with SafeMove option
To be able to run Axis Calibration, SafeMove needs to be unsynchronized. The
Axis Calibration routine recognizes if the robot is equipped with SafeMove and will
force SafeMove to unsynchronize automatically.
