WARNING
•Before operating the manipulator, check that servo power is turned
OFF pressing the emergency stop buttons .
When the servo power is turned OFF, the SERVO ON LED on the
programming pendant is turned OFF.
Injury or damage to machinery may result if the emergency stop circuit
cannot stop the manipulator during an emergency. The manipulator
should not be used if the emergency stop buttons do not function.

•Once the emergency stop button is released, clear the cell of all
items which could interfere with the operation of the manipulator.
Then turn the servo power ON.
Injury may result from unintentional or unexpected manipulator motion.
Fig. : Release of Emergency Stop
•Observe the following precautions when performing teaching
operations within the P-point maximum envelope of the
manipulator:
– Be sure to use a lockout device to the safeguarding when going
inside. Also, display the sign that the operation is being
performed inside the safeguarding and make sure no one closes
the safeguarding.
– View the manipulator from the front whenever possible.
– Always follow the predetermined operating procedure.
– Keep in mind the emergency response measures against the
manipulator’s unexpected motion toward you.
– Ensure that you have a safe place to retreat in case of
emergency.
Improper or unintended manipulator operation may result in injury.
•Confirm that no person is present in the P-point maximum envelope
of the manipulator and that you are in a safe location before:
– Turning ON the power for the DX200.
– Moving the manipulator with the programming pendant.
– Running the system in the check mode.
– Performing automatic operations.
Injury may result if anyone enters the P-point maximum envelope of the
manipulator during operation. Always press an emergency stop button
immediately if there is a problem.

3.1 Installation of the Safeguarding
3.1Installation of the Safeguarding
To insure safety, be sure to install safeguarding. It prevents unforeseen
accidents with personnel and damage to equipment. Refer to the quoted
clause for your information and guidance.
Responsibility for Safeguarding (ISO10218)
The user of a manipulator or robot system shall ensure that safeguarding
is provided and used in accordance with Sections 6, 7, and 8 of this
standard. The means and degree of safeguarding, including any
redundancies, shall correspond directly to the type and level of hazard
presented by the robot system consistent with the robot application.
Safeguarding may include but not be limited to safeguarding devices,
barriers, interlock barriers, perimeter guarding, awareness barriers, and
awareness signals.
3.2Mounting Procedures for Manipulator Base
The manipulator should be firmly mounted on a baseplate or foundation
strong enough to support the manipulator and withstand repulsion forces
during acceleration and deceleration.
Construct a solid foundation with the appropriate thickness to withstand
maximum repulsion forces of the manipulator referring to Table 3-1 “Manipulator Repulsion Force and Torque” .
A baseplate flatness must be kept at 0.5 mm or less: insufficient flatness
of installation surface may deform the manipulator shape and affect its
functional abilities. Mount the manipulator base as instructed in section
3.2.1 “Mounting Example” or section 3.2.2 “When the Manipulator is
Mounted Directly on the Floor”.

3.2 Mounting Procedures for Manipulator Base
3.2.1 Mounting Example
For the first process, anchor the baseplate firmly to the ground. The
baseplate should be rugged and durable to prevent shifting of the
manipulator or the mounting fixture. It is recommend to prepare a
baseplate of 50 mm or more thick, and anchor bolts of M20 or larger size.
Next, fix the manipulator base to the baseplate. The manipulator base is
tapped for eight mounting holes; securely fix the manipulator base to the
baseplate with hexagon head screws M20 (70 mm long is recommended).
Tighten the hexagon head screws and anchor bolts firmly so that they will
not work loose during the operation.
Refer to Fig. 3-2 “Mounting the Manipulator Baseplate”.

3.2 Mounting Procedures for Manipulator Base
3.2.2 When the Manipulator is Mounted Directly on the Floor
The floor should be strong enough to support the manipulator. Construct
a solid foundation with the appropriate thickness to withstand maximum
repulsion forces of the manipulator. As a rough standard, when there is a
concrete thickness (floor) is 200 mm or more, the manipulator base can
be fixed directly to the floor with M 20 anchor bolts. Before mounting the
manipulator, however, check that the floor is level and that all cracks, etc.
are repaired. Any thickness less than 200 mm is insufficient for mounting,
even if the floor is concrete.

3.4Location
When installing a manipulator, it is necessary to satisfy the following
environmental conditions:
• Ambient Temperature: 0 to +45C
• Humidity: 20 to 80%RH (non-condensing)
• Free from dust, soot, oil, or water
• Free from corrosive gas or liquid, or explosive gas or liquid.
