Comau Robotics Product Instruction
Connect the signals and power cables between the Control Unit and the Robot.
Connect the Robot to earth or to the Control Unit or to a nearby earth socket.
Check that the Control Unit door (or doors) is/are locked with the key.
A wrong connection of the connectors may cause permanent damage to the
Control Unit components.
The Control Unit manages internally the main safety interlocks (gates, enabling
push-buttons, etc.). Connect the Control Unit safety interlocks to the line safety
circuits, taking care to connect them as required by the Safety Standards. The
safety of the interlock signals coming from the transfer line (emergency stop, gates
safety devices etc.) i.e. the realisation of correct and safe circuits, is the
responsibility of the Robot and Control System integrator.
In the cell/line emergency stop circuit it is necessary to include the contacts of the
Control Unit emergency stop push-buttons, available on X30. The push-buttons are not
interlocked inside the emergency stop circuit of the Control Unit.
Check that the controlled stop time is consistent with the type of Robot connected to the
Control Unit. The stop time is selected using selector switches SW1 and SW2 on the
SDM module.
Check that the environmental and operating conditions do not exceed the limits
specified in the Technical Documentation of the specific product.
The calibration operations must be carried out with great care, as indicated in the
Technical Documentation of the specific product, and should be concluded by
checking the correct position of the machine.
11
Comau Robotics Product Instruction
To load or update the system software (for example after replacing boards), use
only the original software handed over by COMAU Robotics. Scrupulously follow
the system software loading procedure described in the Technical Documentation
supplied with the specific product. After loading, always make some Robot moving
tests at low speed remaining outside the protected area.
Check that the barriers of the protected area are correctly positioned.
12
Comau Robotics Product Instruction
In both cases operate cautiously, always remaining out of the Robot range of action
and test the cycle at low speed.
Before using the manual brake release devices, it is recommended to sling the Robot,
or hook it to an overhead travelling crane.
The use of brake releasing device may cause the axes falling due to gravity, as well
as possible impacts due to an incorrect reset, after applying the brake releasing
module. The procedure for the correct usage of the brake releasing device (both
for the integrated one and module one) is to be found in the maintenance
handbooks.
13
Comau Robotics Product Instruction
When after the interruption of an unfinished MOVE the motion is enabled again, the
typical function of trajectory recuperation may generate unpredictable paths that
may imply the risk of impact. This same condition arises at the next restart of the
automatic cycle. Avoid moving the Robot in positions that are distant from the ones
required for the motion restarting; alternatively disable the outstanding MOVE
programmes and/or instructions.
After replacement of the SDM module, check on the new module that the setting of the
stop time on selector switches SW1 and SW2 is consistent with the type of Robot
connected to the Control Unit.

Because of the considerable stress discharged to the ground by the Robot, and the need
to have appropriate backing plans:
direct fixing to the floor is not foreseen.
the Robot must be secured to a horizontal flat surface with the following flatness
tolerance: 0,2 .
The Robot can be installed on the wall; in case of installation of this type, pay
particular attention to the programming and moving operations "Off line".
Remark that:
in order to carry out the required calibration operations on axes, it is necessary to
foresee that the Robot can be handled in calibration position (Fig. 12.1 - Robot
calibration position) without interfering with installation environment overall
dimensions (equipment, etc.).
in order to use the software option of load auto-determination it is necessary to
have some cubic meters of free space in order to allow the Robot axes motion
during operations.
If the plate is set by the integrator the stresses discharged on ground by the Robot and
the resistance conditions of the fastening surface shall be checked.
