Setting the Monitoring

Operating Library

Use the SchneiderElectricRobotics and RoboticModule library for operating the Lexium T robot.

Software Limits for Working Area

For the definition of application-specific software limits, refer to EcoStruxure Machine Expert online help.

Verifying the Brake Voltage

Verify the brake voltage as an incorrect voltage may cause premature wear of the brakes.

For further information, observe the respective operating instructions of the motors:

  • VRKT•M: MH3 Servo motor Motor Manual

  • VRKT•L: Lexium 62 ILM Hardware Guide

Testing the Additional Protective Devices

  • Verify the emergency stop, operator protective device, and device for releasing the brakes.

  • Comply with the relevant standards, and design the protective devices to stop the robot without leaving the path (Safe Stop 1 (SS1), synchronous).

For further information, refer to Lexium 52 Hardware Guide or Lexium 62 Hardware Guide.

Verifying the Monitoring

  • Slowly move the robot beyond the limits of the preset working space in order to verify that this is prevented by the preset monitoring.

  • Individually move the arms beyond the maximum/minimum angles in order to verify that this is prevented by the preset monitoring.
