2.3. Monitoring Grease Filling

 

l  Signal Output

Set a monitoring screen of the output signal set on 『Service』 → 『1: Monitoring』→ 『2: I/O Signal』. When the signal is allocated, it is displayed in bold. When the conditions of signal output are met, it displayed in yellow. (Make sure of # 9 on the Universal Output Signal Monitoring Window as shown in the following figure.)

l Grease Filling Icon Output  

The Icon is displayed in order to signal the grease filing alarm to the left side of “Teach/Playback” mode marks on the teaching pendant. The Icon is flickering (blinking) at the time of greasing filling.

 

l Distance (%)

The total distance of each current part is the value set on 『System』 → 『3: Robot Parameter』→ 『11: Setting Greasing Filling Time』, converted into a percentage. When the total distance is 80 % and over, it is displayed in yellow; when the total distance is 100 %, it is in red.

 

 

l Remaining date

The value, which has been set on 『System』 → 『3: Robot Parameter』→ 『11: Scheduling Grease Filling』, indicates the remaining date of the current element. Input the next filling schedule after the filling has been completed. When the remaining days are less than ten (10) days, it is displayed in yellow; when the remaining days are within five (5) days, it is displayed in red.

 

 

①    If the total distance detection ratio of each part of a robot is over the set value, the warning messages (W0018 grease filling needed! Make sure of the System Feature Data/Distance), signals, and Icon are sent outwards and on T/P screen. At this time, the robot continues to run automatically.

 

②    Even when the total distance was not cleared (“0”), automatic operation is possible, and the signals and Icon continue to be sent outwards and on T/P screen.

 

③    When the control power is on again in the aforementioned conditions, the alarm is always sounded.
