5 The robot moves to preparation position.
6 Remove the protective cover from the fixed pin and the protection plug from
the bushing, if any, and install the calibration tool.
When calibrating axis 5, remove the protective cover from the fixed pin using
a tweezer, and install the calibration tool.
7 The robot performs a measurement sequence by rotating the axis back and
forth.
8 Remove the calibration tool and reinstall the protective cover on the fixed
pin and the protection plug in the bushing, if any.
After the calibration of axis 5, refit the protective cover on the fixed pin for
axis 5 using a tweezer.
9 The robot moves to verify that the calibration tool is removed.
10 Choose whether to save the calibration data or not.
Action
DANGER
While conducting the calibration, the robot needs
to be connected to power.
Make sure that the robot's working area is empty,
as the robot can make unpredictable movements.
Wipe the calibration tool clean.
Note
The calibration method is exact. Dust, dirt or color
flakes will affect the calibration value.
Action
Tap the calibration icon and enter the calibration
main page.
All mechanical units connected to the system are
shown with their calibration status.
Tap the mechanical unit in question.
Note
For RobotWare 7, the mechanical unit page is
displayed only if there is more than one mechan-
ical unit available.
