Installing the robotic assembly and
spooling mechanism into the base module
Procedure
1. Hold the spooling mechanism so that the end of the
spooling cable that attaches to the robotic assembly
is pointing up.
2. Align the tab on the back of the spooling
mechanism with the keyhole in the back left of the
metal wall.
3. Push the spooling mechanism in and to the left until
it snaps into place.
4. The robotic assembly is shipped with the robot in
the unlocked position. Verify that it is unlocked.
If the robot is locked, unlock it by standing at the
front of the module and moving the blue lever to the
left, then toward you, and then to the right.
5. Each corner of the robotic assembly has a gear with
two protruding pins. Rotate one of the gears on the
robotic assembly so that the two pins are aligned
horizontally.
6. Place the gears of the robotic assembly into the
grooves on the inside corners of the module.
Confirm that all of the pins are touching the outside
of the grooves.
7. Allow the robotic assembly to move down slowly
until the top of the robotic assembly is
approximately flush with the top of the module.
CAUTION: Lower the robotic assembly no
faster than 12 mm (0.5 inch) per second. If the
robotic assembly is not aligned properly or
you push too hard or too quickly, damage to
the robotic assembly and the module may
occur.
NOTE: The robotic assembly is designed to lower
smoothly when applying gentle force. If it does not,
check the alignment of the gears.
8. Lock the robot. Standing at the front of the module,
move the blue lever to the left, then away from you,
and then to the right.
9. Standing at the right side of the module, remove the
end of the spooling cable that connects to the
robotic assembly from its cradle.
10. Place the spooling cable into the grooves where it
attaches to the robotic assembly and rotate it until it
snaps into place.
