    All of the operators deny adjusting anything, the program has been corrected. I just wonder how it got shifted. I noticed the program shift menus display name of last selected program so maybe an operator was fumbling through menus and accidentally shifted it.

    I have a fixture with 2 separate parts and programs that share the same user frame 1 data. Last week one of the parts randomly shifted about 1/2". I checked the 3 master points on fixture which were off by about 1/2". I reset them which corrected one part and shifted other part by 1/2". Only strange thing I saw was the first program that shifted was cued up in the PROGRAM SHIFT menu. I created a dummy program to fill this menu and avoid any shifting but it keeps inserting the other program. Any thoughts on this?

    Be very careful when cleaning inside cabinet. Mine used to get a lot of dust inside and it seemed like every time anyone (including outside techs) removed dust with a shop vac and/or low pressure compressed air, the static or something made servo amp and/or E-stop unit cause faults that only go away when those parts are replaced. We sealed cabinet and installed a cabinet cooler to pressurize the air inside to keep dust out.

    I set my collision guard at 115% in MENU-SETUP-COLL GUARD. It goes up to 200%. I had it set at 100% before on RJ3iB 2000ia 165F router robot that has been run hard for over 15 years. Recently robot was smashing tools on touch plate while doing TCP check. I had to slow down a jerky tool pick up move in order to avoid collision detect and haven't had any trouble since.

    Thanks for the responses. I ended up having to fly in a technician with a new E-STOP unit and servo amp, after installing these parts the faults finally cleared. We then swapped in my old spare parts until we found a combination of E-stop and servo amp that would not generate faults. Out of 4 spare E-stop units and 3 servo amps only 1 of each was useable. I had tried swapping in these old spares before but must not have had the correct combination to make it work. If you have an older robot like me, keep a spare E-stop unit and servo amp handy or you could be down for a while. This same problem happens at least every other year for the last 10, very expensive and frustrating!

    I have a 2004 model R2000ia 165F RJ3iB with no door switch. I cannot clear these faults (SRVO-105 DOOR OPEN OR E-STOP) and (SRVO-021 SRDY GROUP 1 AXIS 1 through 6). I replaced the Servo amp, E-STOP unit, mode switch, operator panel board (on door), teach pendant and cable, board behind buttons (on door) and still get the same faults. I also had an electrician check it over and spoke with FANUC. If anyone has any information that could help would be greatly appreciated!
