2 123 Robot needs
air to stall
Stop alarm The tilt or grip movement failed

mode.
Press the "Save Logfiles" button on the
touch screen as soon as possible after the
error occurred ("Miscellaneous Service"
window). Notify the service engineer.

If the main air supply to the station has
been switched off (main valve in the upper
beam has been closed), then switch it on
again.
- If the air has not been switched off, call
Help desk in Tumba.
