ERROR HANDLING
Some of the errors might not be covered or handled by the guide below. If this is the case,
it is utterly important that everyone who does manual change or troubleshoots the robot
system is familiar with the program and know how to manually use the robot system.
For more basic robot handling see section Robots, basic functions further down in the
manual.
General errors
Cancelled loading autoclave
In case of aborted loading between the autoclave and the robotic system, the signal “ready
to load” can still be true, this can occur for example if the autoclave has changed to
another mode or if the system has been restarted. If this situation appears, set the robot
system to manual for all the zones and change the destination of the rack to 532 to reset the
ongoing transport and then change the destination to the new position.
Timeout transport
If an ongoing transport on the conveyor does not arrive for a certain period of time, a time
out alarm will alert the operator and transport will be interrupted. Timeout transport (Pos.
xx). This is to avoid wear and tear.
To resolve this error, gradually check the conveyor to find the reason why the goods did
not arrive at the intended position and restore the alarm at HMI.
Sensor failure
If a sensor on the conveyor-system is triggered by mistake, a sensor error message will
notify the operator. The error message is as follows “Sensor fault (Pos. xx)”. Please fix the
sensor(s) and reset the alarm.
Scanner alarm
If a scanner fails to read a barcode during process an alarm will alert the operator, the error
code is as follows “No read scanner (pos.xx)”.
First: Look on the rack to check if the barcode sign is damaged- if so, please replace it.
To restore: Click on scanner symbol in (pos.xx) and type in the right rack ID in the field
and press confirm, the scanner will now be okay and able to continue.
Robot grippers
Sensor failure
Before any of the gripper’s operations is executed, a control of the sensors statuses is done.
If none or both the sensors is activated at the same time, the screen below will be shown to
the operator. The operator should always look at the gripper before selecting command in
the controller.
Be careful when you close the gripper - risk of crushing.
Check the sensors and adjust them if needed.
Both sensors are active.
