2. Procedure
2.1. Preparation
Before starting, Cancel any scheduled jobs in the software.This way, there is no possibility for the software to send commands to the tower.
2.2. Turn off belt sensors
If the software gives the alarm LX-07: Lift Alarm: Belt-Stop, you need to turn off the belt sensors first.If the error is not present, leave the belt sensors on.
To disable the sensors, go to the electrical cabinet under the tower.In most cases, this is located under the elevator on the robot side.
In the electrical cabinet is a Switch next to the PLC.
After disabling the belt sensor, An error LX-10 shows up that the safety is bypassed.If this error is given, this means you did it correctly.
|
Safety Bypassed only includes the belt sensors. Light curtains or fencing can still prevent the elevator from moving. |
2.3. Moving the elevators
2.3.1. Resetting all errors
Before the elevators can be moved, all errors must be reset.
If you have disabled the belt sensors, the LX-10 error cannot be reset.This error does not prevent the elevators from moving.
2.3.2. Using the handheld
There are 3 modes on the handheld.
-
FRONT:Front lets you control the elevator on the robot side.
-
AUTO:Auto won’t let you move anything, but gives the control to the TowerPLC.
-
BACK:Back lets you control the elevator on the operator side.
-
Up and down is for vertical movement.
-
In and out is for horizontal movement.
|
If the elevator is not moving when you expect it to, it could be that there is an error.Check the error screen for errors and try resetting then. |
