Halo
It has happen twice now that I had to calibrate the robot 2400 with s4 controler. The problen I have is when you go to the jogging page and you look at the top right hand corner where the values or degrees of each axis is displayed the whole block for the values is blank. Once I had to calibrate the robot by using the brakes and the other time with the pendant.After calibration it shows the values. If I replace the smb board and the batteries in the back of the robot will this solve the problem?
Thank you
Lost calibration values S4

We had a robot do that... I don't remember if it was batteries or a corrupt OS.
(Batteries and/or SMB are easier to check...) -
Definitely try the battery pack first. Do this with the power on so you don't lose the rev. counters. Leave the controller on for 24 hours after installing the battery pack so the NiCad batteries fully charge.
If you need to replace the battery pack with the power off, move the robot to the sync (all axes at zero) position before turning off power. It's easier to update the rev. counters when you power it back on if it's already at sync.
Be very careful not to pinch any wires when you put the back plate back on the base of the robot.
The blanked out position numbers is normal on some of the software revisions when the robot is not calibrated - the numbers are meaningless until the robot is calibrated.
