Chapter 3: Setup
This chapter describes how to set up your HD-1500 and configure it for operation. It includes
information for optional features.
3.1 Overview of HD-1500 Setup
Setup tasks consist of preparing the HD-1500 for use by unpacking it and completing some
mechanical configuration such as installing the battery and the charging station. This includes
software procedures such as commissioning the HD-1500, and communication tasks such as
configuring the HD-1500 to use a wireless network.
Setup also includes creating and editing the workspace map that the HD-1500 uses for nav-
igation. This manual provides an overview of the map creation procedure, which is described
in detail in the Fleet Operations Workspace Core User's Manual (Cat. No. I635).
Preparing the platform might also include attaching your payload structure to the HD-1500
and then cabling the payload structure to the User Access Panel, Safety Controller, Machine
Automation Controller, and Ethernet Switch for power, control, and data communications. The
procedures described in this section assume that you independently complete and implement
a design for your payload structure, using information and technical specifications provided
in this guide or obtained from your OMRON representative.
Tasks
The tasks required to set up an HD-1500 are:
l
Install the charging station. See: Installing the Charging Station on page 110.
l
Fully charge the battery, either outside of or inside the platform.
l
Install the battery in the platform. See: Installing the Battery on page 104.
l
Set up the wireless Ethernet for the platform. See: Settings and Configuration on page
124.
l
Design, build, and install a payload structure to suit your application. See: Payload
Structures on page 136.
l
Configure the AMR for your environment, so it can perform useful tasks.
This includes generating the map that the AMR will use for its navigation. Mapping is
covered briefly in Create a Workspace Map on page 130 and in detail in the Fleet Oper-
ations Workspace Core User's Manual (Cat. No. I635).
You might require additional steps to attach and configure a payload structure such as a robot
arm.
