Overview of the calibration procedure on the FlexPendant
The actual instructions of how to perform the calibration procedure and what to
do at each step is given on the FlexPendant. You will be guided through the
calibration procedure, step by step.
Use the following list to learn about the calibration procedure before running the
RobotWare program on the FlexPendant. It gives you a brief overview of the
calibration procedure sequence.
After the calibration method has been called for on the FlexPendant, the following
sequence will be run.
1 Choose calibration routine. The routines are described in
calibration procedure on page 235
.
2 Choose which axis/axes to calibrate.
3 The robot moves to synchronization position.
4 Validate the synchronization marks.
5 The robot moves to preparation position.
6 Remove the protective cover from the fixed pin and the protection plug from
the bushing, if any, and install the calibration tool.
Axes 1, 2 and 3 are fitted with dampers that need to be removed.
