External Battery Unit (2)
Setup Procedure
To setup the external battery unit, follow the process below.
- The External battery unit does not include batteries in shipment. Do not connect this unit to the robot without battery installation.
- Be sure to install the external battery unit after robot setting has completed. Removing the external battery unit causes the loss of battery supply to the encoder, and then will result in a loss of data.
- When installation, Set the unit to the wall (vertical surface) and be sure to place the cable on the underside.
1
Open the lid.
2
Connect the battery (sold separately) to connector.
3
Replace the battery holder and the lid.
- Confirm the direction of the battery holder so as not to mistake the upside and the downside. Install the battery holder so as to the triangle mark is upside.
- Attach the lid carefully not to damage the O-ring.
4
Connect the cable of the external battery unit to the connector panel of the robot.
5
Remove the encoder backup battery of the robot body.
Refer to”Replacing the Encoder Backup Batteries”.
Using both the encoder backup battery of the robot and the external battery unit together may cause the battery leakage.
6
Be sure to input the next battery replacement date of the encoder backup battery.
Precaution for the External Battery Unit.
Do not mix new batteries and old batteries when replacing the batteries of the external battery unit.
In case of replacing batteries, avoid conditions that all the batteries are unconnected. Install new batteries first by using auxiliary connector, then remove the old batteries.
In the event of removing the external battery unit from the robot, such as transportation, relocation and removing, make sure to reinstall the encoder backup battery of the robot body. Removing the external battery unit without the reinstallation of the encoder backup battery causes the loss of encoder data. Make sure to confirm the installation of the encoder backup battery before removing the external battery unit.
To avoid the loss of encoder data, do not break or damage the cable.
