    Hi all ! I ve just bought a xrc mini controller for my sv3 arm , but they dont really match on the serials . The controller belongs to the same type of arm , sv3 . I wanna try to put them work together . I do have all the cables and genuine plugs . What I will must be aware for ?

    P.S. All battery from my arm are ok by voltage , but that inside the controller has 0 voltage . I know , maybe my eprom is empty but must be a way to restored !?

    Thank s!

    As long as the controller is for a SV3 you should be OK with the serial # not matching.

    The controller will need initialized. That requires a high level password. You will need to contact Motoman to have a technician come out and rebuild the controller CMOS. If you have a CMOS.BIN file tech support can sent you instructions on how to load it. All the menus will be in Japanese when you power it up.

    Hi and thanks for the answer ! Well I do make a test with them together . He ask me : ''check position R1 ! '' If I press start button : '' set to home position ! '' . Nothing moves even with the servo on ! On the pendant display all the origin and the current position are zeroes ! I am in '' play '' position from the controller button . I do not have that bin file . Is it possible to ask them to send me ? Can this bin be copied from another functional controller ?

    Best regards

    Sorin

    For User manuals, contact Yaskawa. The controller is old enough that they are not available from the website.

    I know a thing or two, because I’ve seen a thing or two. Don't even ask about a third thing. I won't know it.

    Update : My arm really works , except R axis thus I have 1314 error . In the book say problems with the servomotor or encoder or servodrive or wiring . The bottom servo make a bit noise so I grease him tomorrow .

    Update : All axis works fine now ( wiring issues on plugs connectors ! ) . Only S axis make a noise when spinning but not from the motor ! Is something related with gears (mechanical ) even I psuh some grease in to the nipple .

    Did somebody knows a light gripping device can be fitted on the arm ?! Or it a must to build my self ?
