10 Maintenance and Inspection

10.1 Maintenance and Inspection of the Motor Part

Simple daily checks need to be performed on the motor part. Check the motor for excessive noise or abnormal vibration.

Do not dismount the motor.

If the motor operates abnormally after 20,000 hours of operation or five years since installation, depending on the environment and conditions used, replace the motor, and the servo driver if necessary.

10.2 Maintenance and Inspection of the Driver Part

There is no need for a daily maintenance and inspection of the driver part. However, it is prudent to clean the driver unit periodically to protect it from dust or particles since they may damage insulation.

10.3 Replacing the Battery for Memory Backup

A lithium battery is provided inside the driver in order to store parameter data in memory. The life span of the lithium battery is normally 20,000 hours.

When the battery reaches the end of its life, an alarm signal will be displayed. When this happens, replace the battery as soon as possible.

The following describes the procedure used to replace the battery:

1)Back up parameters, programs, cam data and other important data stored in memory to flash ROM before replacing the battery. (For details on memory backup, see Section 10.4.)

2)Turn OFF the power.

3)Remove the six screws located on the side panel of the driver. (See the figure below.)

4)Replace the battery quickly (within 10 seconds).

5)Check the connection and turn ON the power. If no error is displayed, the battery has been replaced correctly.

Note 1: If a battery error is displayed, it is necessary to reset the system after replacing the battery. In this case, parameters and other data must be set again.

Note 2: Be sure to use <CR2032> 3V or equivalent battery. Be careful on the front and back orientation of the battery.
