5.3.2 Updating revolution counters on OmniCore robots
Introduction
This section describes how to do a rough calibration of each manipulator axis by
updating the revolution counter for each axis, using the FlexPendant.
Step 1 - Manually running the manipulator to the synchronization position
Use this procedure to manually run the manipulator to the synchronization position.
NoteAction
Select axis-by-axis motion mode.1
See Synchronization marks and synchron-
ization position for axes on page 810.
Jog the manipulator to align the synchron-
ization marks.

Step 2 - Updating the revolution counter
with the FlexPendant on page 816.
When all axes are positioned, update the
revolution counter.

Step 2 - Updating the revolution counter with the FlexPendant
Use this procedure to update the revolution counter with the FlexPendant
(OmniCore).
Action
On the start screen, tap Calibrate.1
Select Calibration from the menu.2
The Mechanical Units page displays a list of available mechanical units.
Note
This step is required only if you are not already in the Mechanical Unit page when
you open Calibrate.
Note
The Mechanical Unit page is displayed only if there are more than one mechanical
unit available. Otherwise, the calibration summary page for the available mechanical
unit is displayed.
Select the mechanical unit for which revolution counter need to be updated.3
The calibration summary page for the selected mechanical unit is displayed.4
Calibration method used at factory for each axis is shown, as well as calibration
method used during last field calibration.
Tap Calibration Methods on the right pane.5
The calibration options are displayed.
Tap Revolution Counters.6
In the Selection column select the axes for which revolution counters need to be up-
dated.
7
Tap Update.
A dialog box is displayed, warning that the updating operation cannot be undone:
• Tap Update to proceed with updating the revolution counters.
• Tap Cancel to cancel updating the revolution counters.
