WARNING
■
Do not connect or disconnect the motor connectors while the power to the robot
system is turned ON. Connecting or disconnecting the motor connectors
with
the power ON is extremely hazardous and may result
in serious bodily injury as
ve abnormally, and also may result in electric shock
and/or malfunction of the robot system.
to the robot system, disconnect the power plug from the power
source. Be sure to connect the AC power cable to a power receptacle.
DO NOT connect it directly to a factory power source.
performing any replacement procedure, turn OFF the Controller and
and then disconnect the power plug from the power source.

WARNING
■
Take meticulous care when handling the lithium battery.
Improper handling of
the lithium battery as mentioned below is extremely hazardous and may result in
heat generation, leakage, explosion, or inflammation.
It also may cause serious safety p
roblems.
Attempting to charge
Disassembling
Connecting batteries improperly
Exposing to fire
Forcing discharge
Deforming by pressure
Short-circuit (Polarity; Positive/Negative)
Heating (85 °C or more)
Soldering the terminal of the lithium battery
directly
When disposing the battery, consult with the professional disposal services or
comply with the local regulation.
Make sure that the battery terminal is insulated,
even for a used buttery. If the terminal contacts with the
other metals, it may short
and result in heat generation, leakage, explosion, or inflammation.
In case of the low lithium battery power, the error to warn the voltage reduction occurs at
the Controller startup (the software startup). All position data will be lost and you will
need to calibrate all joints.
The life span of the lithium battery varies depending on the energizing hours and
installation environment of the Controller. It is about 3 years as a rough guide (when the
Controller is connected to power for 8 hours a day). When the Controller is not
connected to power, the battery consumption will significantly increase compared to when
the Controller is energized. If warnings of voltage reduction occur, replace the lithium
metal battery even if it has not reached the above product life.
For the EPSON RC+ 7.0 Ver. 7.2.x or later (firmware Ver.7.2.x.x or later), the
recommended replacement time for the battery can be checked in the [Maintenance] dialog
box of the EPSON RC+ 7.0.
