Maintenance 7. Joint #4 (Replacing the Motor)
S5 Rev.5 143
After parts have been replaced (motors, reduction gear units, timing belts, etc.), the
Manipulator cannot perform positioning properly because a mismatch exists between the
origin stored in each motor encoder and its corresponding origin stored in the Controller.
After replacing the parts, it is necessary to match these origins.
The process of aligning the two origins is called “Calibration”.
Refer to Maintenance 12. Calibration and follow the steps that pertain to the software you
are using to perform the calibration.
