Product documentation, IRC5

Categories for manipulator documentation

The manipulator documentation is divided into a number of categories. This listing

is based on the type of information in the documents, regardless of whether the

products are standard or optional.

All documents listed can be ordered from ABB on a DVD. The documents listed

are valid for IRC5 manipulator systems.

Product manuals

Manipulators, controllers, DressPack/SpotPack, and most other hardware will be

delivered with a Product manual that generally contains:

• Safety information.

• Installation and commissioning (descriptions of mechanical installation or

electrical connections).

•Maintenance (descriptions of all required preventive maintenance procedures

including intervals and expected life time of parts).

• Repair (descriptions of all recommended repair procedures including spare

parts).

• Calibration.

• Decommissioning.

•Reference information (safety standards, unit conversions, screw joints, lists

of tools ).

• Spare parts list with exploded views (or references to separate spare parts

lists).

• Circuit diagrams (or references to circuit diagrams).

Technical reference manuals

The technical reference manuals describe reference information for robotics

products.

•Technical reference manual - Lubrication in gearboxes: Description of types

and volumes of lubrication for the manipulator gearboxes.

•Technical reference manual - RAPID overview: An overview of the RAPID

programming language.

•Technical reference manual - RAPID Instructions, Functions and Data types:

Description and syntax for all RAPID instructions, functions, and data types.

•Technical reference manual - RAPID kernel: A formal description of the

RAPID programming language.

•Technical reference manual - System parameters: Description of system

parameters and configuration workflows.

Application manuals

Specific applications (for example software or hardware options) are described in

Application manuals. An application manual can describe one or several

applications.

3HAC031973-001 Revision: F 9

Product documentation, IRC5

An application manual generally contains information about:

• The purpose of the application (what it does and when it is useful).

•What is included (for example cables, I/O boards, RAPID instructions, system

parameters, DVD with PC software).

• How to install included or required hardware.

• How to use the application.

• Examples of how to use the application.

Operating manuals

The operating manuals describe hands-on handling of the products. The manuals

are aimed at those having first-hand operational contact with the product, that is

production cell operators, programmers, and trouble shooters.

The group of manuals includes (among others):

•Operating manual - Emergency safety information

•Operating manual - General safety information

•Operating manual - Getting started, IRC5 and RobotStudio

•Operating manual - Introduction to RAPID

•Operating manual - IRC5 with FlexPendant

•Operating manual - RobotStudio

•Operating manual - Trouble shooting IRC5, for the controller and manipulator.
