I have a couple motors sitting around that have been taken off of irb6400 and irb4400 robots. On one, the brake is weak and will not hold the axis and the other, will not completely release the brake causing “movement errors”. Has anyone found a reputable source for these types of repairs? One is a 3hac 3697-1/3
The other is a 3hab 5760-1/05
Thanks for any help in advance

Partitioned the usb drive to 100 floppys. Saved keydisk and 8’others to usb floppys 1-9 and was able to install the software.
Thanks

Thanks guys. Think I have a handle on what I need to do now.

I have a unit I am installing that has a usb drive instead of floppy. The unit sat long enough that it would not boot. So I cold booted the machine and installed new batteries.
Is there a way to put the key disk, and disks 1-8 on a usb drive and load everything? Or am I looking at installing a floppy to do the install?
Thanks for the heads up

Not sure what the exact problem was. Left power off with batteries disconnected over the weekend and was able to load the disks this morning.
Thanks

Yes. Three to be exact. Disk drive turns on like is trying to read it, but shuts back off after 10 seconds.

Having trouble with a unit I just picked up. Trying to load software and will not recognize key disk. I have tried making 3 different disks and no luck.
Any ideas?

Guys,
The problem ended up being lack of power to the smb. When production was setting up the tooling in the machine the robot will extract from, they dropped a large steel piece on the cable. I had an extra cable. Should be back in business tomorrow if I get the chance to finish up some stuff. If not tomorrow, Wednesday.
Thanks again to all

I am thinking that is not the problem because I had the unit functional prior to this error

Ok, back from a much needed vacation and after several calls with abb and making a new set of complete disks, was able to get back to the 38034 error. I notices that when first powering up the machine, the screen and a81 board flash on and off like it is having a low voltage issue until it finally “catches” and then the system boots up. I have never seen this on my other robots and wondering if maybe could be root of problem.
OTOH, my robot was purchased used and the main cable where plugs into cabinet base there was a short and the connector melted and the pins came loose in the socket. The previous owner just ran the wires through the pin holes into the connector on the cable.
Was nice finding that.....

You are always available to help and have great ideas. I will try this tomorrow to see what I can come up with.

So, back again. Same machine, different problem. I was one day from finally commissioning this robot and came in this morning to finish tool alignment with removal of the casting from a machine.
On the screen was a 38034 error. So, I looked over the cables really well, changed the serial measurement board and the main computer as that is what the error code calls out for.
.
Whenever I power the unit back on, the screen and the led lights on the a81 board flash on and off for awhile and then finally come on and stay on.
Since the disks need to be installed again, which I have because I just purchased them. It asks for the system key disk. BUT, after installing the disk and pressing any button the drive light comes on, but nothing else happens.
I was supposed to start the cell tomorrow. Guess not happening
Thanks for any help

I am no expert on these, but I would make sure all of my units have new batteries before disconnecting power. Also make sure all of your boards are seated and locked in place.

Thanks for the help on this. Yesterday, I figures out that the jumpers were just as you stated. I deleted all of the I/O user signals and the board definitions. Restarted, then reconfigured each board with restart. After I installed the user I/O and it likes it. Problem was that the board was not correctly setup before I put in the user parameters.
Thanks
Today worked on replacing airline through bottom of base frame......

After restart, I get this message
Then I get this because it cannot reference anything in my program to i/o

Where do I find that file? All new to me. Sorry

I think figure out pins on address key and configured
All of my input and outputs are setup in my sys param/user signals
But, when checking my i/o units
Shows no signals
Need a little guidance
Thanks

I can see how to add, just not sure of addresses and poll rates

I have an s4c robot. Purchased new software and key disk from ABB. Installed and now working with i/o. Unit has dsqc 350 and dsqc 328 in the cabinet. The 328 is where I hook my interlock connections. But it doesn’t seem that they were configured in the installation. Help figuring out how to configure these would be greatly appreciated. I am not even sure that the listed “Panel” is configured correctly as the manual shows a picture of it listed as 10 as the address.
Thanks
