VP6242 Robot Calibration (CALSET)

Modified on Tue, 12 Nov at 11:41 AM

Please read our Legal Disclaimer before executing any steps on this article.

Overview

Arm calibration, CALSET, must be performed when any of the motors is replaced or the encoder backup battery goes dead so that the position-related data retained in the encoder is lost.

The CALSET data is different on each robot.

CALSET data should be managed by the customer. Back up the CALSET data periodically, referring to "Backing up Projects".

Tools and Parts Needed

Philips-head screwdriver (depends on model)
Allen (hex) key (depends on model)
CALSET Jig
- 410192-0010 - 6th axis CALSET jig

Note:
If you are not sure which part number you need or the Robot Arm you own please stop and contact your DENSO Robotics sales representative.
