WARNING
2. Absolute pulse coder battery replacement
When replacing the memory backup batteries, keep the power to the machine (Digital Servo
Adapter) turned on, and apply an emergency stop to the machine. Because this work is performed
with the power on and the cabinet open, only those personnel who have received approved safety
and maintenance training may perform this work.
When replacing the batteries, be careful not to touch the high–voltage circuits (marked
and
fitted with an insulating cover).
Touching the uncovered high–voltage circuits presents an extremely dangerous electric shock
hazard.
NOTE
The absolute pulse coder uses batteries to preserve its absolute position.
If the battery voltage drops, a low battery voltage alarm is displayed on the host controller, DPL/MDI
screen, or etc..
When a low battery voltage alarm is displayed, replace the batteries within a week. Otherwise, the
absolute position data held by the pulse coder will be lost.
To replace the battery, see the procedure described Maintenance Manual for FANUC SERVO
AMPLIFIER α series or FANUC SERVO MOTOR β series.
