Charging Paddle Adjustments
The Docking Target charging paddle can be adjusted if alignment issues with the AMR charging con-
tacts occur. The vertical height and angle of the charging paddle can be adjusted with the following
screws.
Precautions for Correct Use
• When making adjustments to the charging paddle adjustment screws, always begin by turn-
ing in the clockwise direction until the screw stops. Then, turn in the counter-clockwise direc-
tion to adjust for correct position, but do not exceed seven turns in the counter-clockwise di-
rection. If the screw is turned beyond seven full rotations, correct charging paddle adjustment
may not be possible and OMRON support may be necessary.
• After making adjustments to the charging paddle, carefully observe the AMR as it approaches
the Docking Target and be prepared to press an E-STOP button if alignment is not correct.
• Do not over-torque the charging paddle adjustment screws if they reach their limits.
