1. About this document Resources MiR Log Analytics and MiR Insights are tools you can use to analyze how well your robots or fleet are performing. MiR Log Analytics is a free tool that lets you analyze recorded performance from error logs, and MiR Insights requires a paid license, but runs continuously alongside MiR Fleet to give real-time data on several metrics.
MiR1350 Pallet Lift is a MiR1350 robot with a MiR Pallet Lift 1350 top module mounted to it. It is designed to transport pallets indoors within production facilities, warehouses, and other industrial locations where access to the public is restricted.
2. Product presentation MiR1350 Pallet Lift is designed for and all risks are considered when it is used to transport pallets that do not extend the physical footprint of the robot. MiR1350 Pallet Lift is a completed MiR application that consists of a MiR1350 with a mounted MiR Pallet Lift 1350.
MiR1350 Pallet Lift can be used together with MiR Pallet Rack. MiR Pallet Rack is a delivery station for heavy loads and pallets with a total payload of up to 1250 kg. MiR1350 Pallet Lift drives autonomously into the MiR Pallet Rack and delivers or picks up loads safely.
2.5 How MiR Pallet Lift 1350 works When MiR1350 Pallet Lift docks to a pallet rack, the lift can either be raised to pick up a pallet or lowered to place a pallet.

2. Product presentation Resetting the lift after turning on the robot To avoid unexpected movement each time you turn the robot on, you must reset MiR Pallet Lift 1350 before operating it. At a minimum, you must also reset the lift after each time the lift has been raised and lowered 50 times.
2. Product presentation 2.7 Internal parts Most internal parts of MiR1350 Pallet Lift are accessed through maintenance hatches that open to different compartments—see "Accessing the internal parts" on page 99. CAUTION Opening or removing hatches from the robot exposes parts connected to the power supply, which can result in a short circuit that will damage the robot and could injure personnel.
3.3 Warning label MiR1350 Pallet Lift is supplied with a warning label that specifies that it is strictly prohibited to ride on the robot. The label must be placed on the robot or top module so that it is clearly visible.
Figure 3.1 The warning label must be placed on the robot or top module 3.4 Foreseeable misuse Any use of MiR1350 Pallet Lift deviating from the intended use is deemed as misuse. This includes, but is not limited to: Using the robot to transport people...
Mobile Industrial Robots has identified the following potential hazards that commissioners must inform personnel about and take all precautions to avoid when working with MiR1350 Pallet Lift: You risk being run over, drawn in, trapped, or struck if you stand in the path of the robot or walk towards the robot or its intended path while it is in motion.
4. Getting started 4. Getting started To get the robot started, see the guide MiR1350 Pallet Lift Quick Start delivered with the robot, or follow these steps: Unpack MiR1350 Pallet Lift—see "Unpacking MiR1350 Pallet Lift" on the next page. Connect the battery—see "Connecting the battery"...
You can connect to the robot using an Ethernet cable or an access point. If you are located in North America, EU, or a part of EAC, you can purchase a MiR Access Point from MiR. Outside these areas, you need to use your own access point that is approved for use in your region. If you choose to use an access point, you must ensure that the robot is disconnected from the wireless network before attaching the access point to remain compliant—see...

Select the network you want the robot to be connected to, and fill out the displayed fields—see the guide How to connect a MiR robot to a Wi-Fi network for more information about the Wi-Fi settings. You can find this guide on MiR Support Portal.
Emergency stop, it will immediately resume an operating state after you press the flashing Resume button. Figure 5.2 MiR1350 Pallet Lift has six Emergency stop buttons: two on each side, one in the front, and one in the rear of the robot CAUTION Emergency stop buttons are not designed for frequent use.

In Setup > Sounds, you can upload new sounds to the robot or edit the volume and length of the default sounds. Sounds can be used in missions and zones to alert or to attract people's attention. For more information about how to set up sounds, see MiR Commissioning Guide. You can find this guide on MiR Support Portal.
5.11 Enable the MiR1350 Pallet Lift feature To access the MiR1350 Pallet Lift settings and mission menus, the MiR1350 Pallet Lift features must be enabled. To check that they are enabled, follow these steps: Sign in to the robot interface, and go to System > Settings > Features.
I/O modules, so they must be activated for the lift to work. 5.12 Testing the top module To test that the top module of MiR1350 Pallet Lift is configured and connected correctly, follow these steps: Sign in to the robot interface, and go to Setup > I/O modules.

Once the lift is lowered, verify that 2 under Inputs is active. When the lift is raised, the robot can only drive with a maximum speed of 0.3 m/s. If MiR Pallet Lift 1350 did not operate correctly, verify that you have enabled the feature as described in "Enable the MiR1350 Pallet Lift feature"...
6. Safety-related functions 6.3 Emergency stop buttons There are six Emergency stop buttons on MiR1350 Pallet Lift. When one of the buttons is pressed, it breaks the Emergency stop circuit, triggering an Emergency stop. The Emergency stop circuit runs through all of the Emergency stop buttons and connects to the safety PLC through the Auxiliary emergency stop interface—see...
The robot stops when it detects an obstacle. The Protective fields on the left and right sides of MiR1350 Pallet Lift are 350 mm when the robot is driving, and the field on the side opposite of the driving direction is always 250 mm.

The interfaces are used to communicate the position of the lift and any errors detected by the lift controller in MiR Pallet Lift 1350. This information is used for integrated safety functions that are specific to MiR Pallet Lift 1350.
7.1 User responsibilities There are three main user types that interact with MiR1350 Pallet Lift. All other persons in the vicinity of the robot application are considered indirect users and must know how to act when they are close to the robot. For example, they must be aware that visibly-marked operating hazard zones must be respected.
8. Accessing the internal parts 8. Accessing the internal parts Most internal parts of MiR1350 Pallet Lift are accessed through maintenance hatches that open to different compartments. CAUTION Opening or removing hatches from the robot exposes parts connected to the power supply, which can result in a short circuit that will damage the robot and could injure personnel.
11. Battery and charging 11. Battery and charging The robot is powered by a lithium battery that can be charged with a MiR cable charger or a MiR Charge 48V charging station. Instructions for charging depend on the charger type and are described in the guides included with each charger.

Custom joystick speed: Should be specified 0.05 m/s below the upper limit of the monitoring case speed interval. If the 0.05 m/s margin is not used, MiR cannot guarantee that the robot will not overshoot the speed interval threshold and activate the Protective fields for the next monitoring case.
15. Demounting the top module 15. Demounting the top module If you need to access the robot from the top, you must demount MiR Pallet Lift 1350. This can be required when troubleshooting issues or replacing robot components. CAUTION Opening or removing hatches from the robot exposes parts connected to the power supply, which can result in a short circuit that will damage the robot and could injure personnel.
