Hello, i have some used ERC-k10s robots,

In some of its, the ERC is ok ant the robot is bad, and in other, the ERc is bad and the robot is ok.

i need to set up the Home and the second home of a robot in another ERC.

How must i proceed?, The param in the door cant be used, because the ERC - robot relation is new.

I thin i must proceed as follow:

put robot in 0 position with the arrow in each axes.
in op2 (00000000) i adjust all the axes to its 0 position.
in op1 SPEC. pnt i press modify, and with the teach pendant i press modifi + enter without move the robot.

Is this the correct instructions?

thanks in advance

Alfonso

Change batteries .
See appropiate manual, I don't think it is sensitive any longer, ERC are to old. But if moderator removes it thats ok. just contact me.
 Dont forget to drive robot to home position close to what the drawing looks like (L arm horz. & U arm is vert.) and record that physical position ,(stick on red arrows will probibly have fallen off R ,B & T then your'll have to guess) you can re-record these positions as much as you like till you get a good axis physical/mechanical position  , then record numbers and write inside the door for future reference. You might keep running into soflimits when trying to move robot to this origin position for the first time , if so, just keep recording the postion as home and it will allow you to move it a little further.
I hope that makes sense.

thanks for the info,

One more question:

The home position and the second home position must be the same?

Thanks

No, but we usually do keep them the same just for good house keeping.
This second home position was created be cause absolute encoders gave the ability to check reference position without the mounting of the robot suffering. Ie .robot completly surrounded by presses, welding jigs, lathes etc.
