Atmospheric Single-Arm Robot Manual
4000-0016 Rev A

The following are general instructions for connecting the robot to the
controller, the controller to a power supply, and the robot to the vacuum
system. Your robotic system might include a pre-aligner or track. For
information specific to these units, see the manual for that unit.
Because the robotic system is not a stand-alone unit, SEMI S2-93A
requires overcurrent protection of the end-user system. The minimum
overcurrent ratings are 10,000 AIC for all 208/120-volt circuit protection
devices and 14,000 AIC for all 480/277-volt circuit protection devices.
These minimums are not required if the overcurrent protection device is
located on the load side of another overcurrent protection device with the
proper AIC rating mounted close to the equipment.
1. Connect the 50-pin and 8-pin cables between the robot and controller.
2. Confirm the AC power setting on the voltage selector setting. Unless
otherwise requested, the controller voltage is set to 120 V
AC
when
shipped.
CAUTION: Setting voltage incorrectly can damage the robotic system.
3. Ensure that the power source is properly grounded. Adherence to
National Electrical Code is required.
4. With system power OFF, connect the controller AC power cable to an
AC outlet connected to the host system EMO circuit.
5.
Access a user interface, following instructions in the next session to
connect the RS-232 cable between the host computer and controller or
connect the Teach Pendant to the controller.
6.
Verify that all cables are plugged into the appropriate connectors with
the correct orientation and that they are all securely fastened.
7. Connect Interlock or I/O cables to the DB37 connector. Ensure that
the signals are in normal running states. For more information on I/O,
refer to the Equipe Software and Controller Manual.
8. Manually move the robot to the 0,0,0 position. In this position the Z-
axis is within 0.3 inch from the negative hard stop. The T-axis is
within 10° of the negative hard stop when turned in a clockwise
direction. R-axis links are centered over each other.
