6.3 Updating revolution counters

Introduction

This section describes how to do a rough calibration of each manipulator axis by

updating the revolution counter for each axis, using the FlexPendant.

Step 1 - Manually running the manipulator to the synchronization position

Use this procedure to manually run the manipulator to the synchronization position.

Correct calibration position of axis 4

When jogging the manipulator to synchronization position, it is extremely important

to make sure that axis 4 is positioned correctly. Axis 4 can be calibrated at the

wrong turn, resulting in an incorrect manipulator calibration.

Make sure axis 4 is positioned according to the cable harness status, not only

according to the synchronization marks. Use the following procedure to check and

correct the axis 4 position.
