R-J2 120 Arcmate

  • So we have an old Genesis Fanuc 120i Arcmate

    now here is where the fun begins.


    Purchased 7 years ago, old maintenance tech bought it and set it up for the company (never ran) and he retired.

    sits for 5 years

    New maintenance comes along and gets it to be able to run a 6in weld

    New maintenance decided to unhook all 3 legs of power coming into robot

    New maintenance quits

    No tech maintenance from the company in 2 years

    I get hired and am assigned the task

    (mind you zero experience on robots am employed as maintenance with the perks of doing all the tech stuff too i guess)

    sent to genesis for maintenance training


    2 years no power, 2 years no batteries.. you guessed it... no software.. also........ no backup


    Contact Fanuc and Genesis to find out our robot is to old and they dont have our F-# in their systems so we are not 100% on the options so we ordered the basics and went from there.


    Now i have the Robot up and will move side to side so that part is atleast alright..

    Now setting up positioners x2 and the rail

    Every time I change my I/O it reverts to 0-0-1 or 0-0-9

    Not having any luck, any thoughts as to why my robot wont save the I/O changes?
