Notes for Safe Operation
Before operating the manipulator, check that servo power is turned OFF pressing the emergency stop buttons on the front door of the DX100 and the programming pendant. 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.
Figure 1: Emergency Stop Button
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.
Figure 2: 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 DX100.
– 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.

1 Zeroing Function

1.1 Outline

1 Zeroing Function
Zeroing function automatically allows for the restoration of the home position data when the manipulator’s home position data disappear. (Optional function)
This function only applies to the manipulator which was ordered to be equipped with the zeroing function and shipped.
1.1 Outline
The DX100 stores the manipulator home position based on the pulse value of each axis encoder. Since the home position is already set and registered before shipment, zeroing operation does not need to be performed at the normal operation. However, zeroing operation needs to be performed to restore the home position since the home position data disappear when you perform the following operations, or the followings occur.
163471-1CD
• Replacement of Motors
• Replacement of Encoders
• Backup Battery Exhaustion in the Manipulator
The home position data is stored by the backup battery. If the battery is exhausted, the home position data disappear again when turning OFF the DX100 power even when the zeroing operation is performed.
Be sure to replace the battery periodically. For the battery replacement, refer to “Maintenance and Inspection” of “MOTOMAN-MH50 INSTRUCTIONS”.
The home positioning cannot be performed accurately by the zeroing operation if changing the combination of the manipulator and the DX100.

1 Zeroing Function
1.2 Details on Zeroing Function
False zeroing operation may lead to the manipulator’s operation error. Be sure to follow the set procedures and perform the zeroing operation upon ensuring the safety.
Injury may result from unintentional or unexpected manipulator motion, or operation error.
The zeroing function is only valid when the security mode is set to the management mode.
For the security mode, refer to chapter 7 “Security System” of the “DX100 INSTRUCTIONS”.

1.2.2.1 Before the Zeroing Operation

Remove the tool attached to the manipulator and perform the zeroing operation for accurate home positioning by the zeroing function. If the zeroing operation is performed with the tool attached to the manipulator, the tool’s weight may affect positioning accuracy.

1.2.2.2 Connection of the Zeroing Devices

1. When using the CF card slot: Insert the communication interface (REX-CF60) into the CF card slot of the programming pendant.
When using the USB slot : Insert the communication interface
(REX-USB60F) into the USB slot of the programming pendant.

1.2 Details on Zeroing Function
Perform the zeroing operation for S-axis with the following procedure.
1. Remove the plug and cover from the attaching portion for the sensor.
Be sure to remove the cover. If the zeroing operation is performed with the cover on, the sensor may be damaged.
The plug, cover, and cover mounting screws are small parts.
Be sure not to lose them during the operation.
Be sure that the servo power is OFF and no safety hazard is around the manipulator when approaching the manipulator.
Injury may result from unintentional or unexpected manipulator motion, or operation error.
2. Perform the home position alignment by adjusting the alignment marks on the S-axis of the manipulator in the “TEACH” mode.
Be sure to adjust the home position alignment marks and perform the zeroing operation.
Confirm that no persons are present in the P-point maximum envelope of the manipulator and the operator is in a safe place.
Injury may result from unintentional or unexpected manipulator motion, or operation error.
3. Check that no spatter, fume or rust is attached in/on the sensor mounting hole, or sensor detecting element after removing the plug and cover.
– Remove the spatter, fume, and rust if they are found.

1.2 Details on Zeroing Function
Perform the zeroing operation for L-axis with the following procedure.
1. Remove the plug and cover from the attaching portion for the sensor.
Be sure to remove the cover. If the zeroing operation is performed with the cover on, the sensor may be damaged.
The plug, cover, and cover mounting screws are small parts.
Be sure not to lose them during the operation.
Be sure that the servo power is OFF and no safety hazard is around the manipulator when approaching the manipulator.
Injury may result from unintentional or unexpected manipulator motion, or operation error.
2. Perform the home position alignment by adjusting the alignment marks on the L-axis of the manipulator in the “TEACH” mode.
Be sure to adjust the home position alignment marks and perform the zeroing operation.
Confirm that no persons are present in the P-point maximum envelope of the manipulator and the operator is in a safe place.
Injury may result from unintentional or unexpected manipulator motion, or operation error.
3. Check that no spatter, fume or rust is attached in/on the sensor mounting hole, or sensor detecting element after removing the plug and cover.
– Remove the spatter, fume, and rust if they are found.
