Description Calibration method
Standard calibra-
tion
The calibrated robot is positioned at home
position, i.e. the axes positions (angles) are
set to 0º.
Standard calibration data is found in the file
calib.cfg, supplied with the robot at delivery.
The file identifies the correct resolver/motor
position corresponding to the robot home posi-
tion.
From deliveries together with RobotWare 5.0.5
and higher, the data will instead be found on
the SMB (serial measurement board) in the
robot, and not in a separate file.
