Parking Tab
As of November 2008, the robot assembly was changed. This change affected the parking tab. The Model 2
robot has spring-loaded roller sliders that extend below the Y-carriage assembly and which could be caught
and bent on the lower chassis when removing the control module if the old parking tab was used. The new
parking tab sticks up 1 inch vertically and holds the robot up high enough that the roller sliders will not get
caught. Also, the tab swivels in the opposite direction. The two parking tabs are identified as follows:
• Pre-November 2008 - The parking tab will be referred to as the "Model 1 parking tab."
• November 2008 and after - The parking tab will be referred to as the "Model 2 parking tab."
The Model 2 parking tab was actually deployed in the field a few months before
the Model 2 robot. This means that you may see some Model 2 parking tabs on
libraries containing Model 1 robots. The Model 2 parking tab works with Model
1 robots; however, the Model 1 parking tab does NOT work with Model 2
robots.
