3.8.2 Robot Series Swap
To use a robot from a different series, data back up and initialization must be executed according to
the on-screen instructions. Controller software versions higher than V2.7 support all robot series (M,
H, and A series). However, a single controller cannot be used with an M, H and A series robot
combination.
For example, if a controller with a software version higher than V2.7 is being used with an H series
robot, disconnecting the existing robot and connecting an M series robot will cause a compatibility
error screen to be displayed. Follow the on-screen instructions to execute data backup and
initialization of H series, then turn the controller power off and on to allow an M series robot to be
connected. Compatibility of each software version is as follows:
Series Compatibility of each Software Version
Note
A/M/H series have different connector structures for robot and controller connection, so the
robot series cannot be swapped with each other.
The compatibility error screen is not displayed if a different robot of the same series is
connected.
Caution
Take caution after swapping to a different model of the same series, as Safety Parameters,
TCP, Tool Weight and various user defined settings are maintained.
Robot series compatibility may vary depending on the software version.
